Striding into our 35th year, we are dedicated to bringing another season filled with joy and nice surprises to our dearly valued audience!
Outstanding Performance by a Female Dancer : Tang Ya in L’Amour Immortel
Outstanding Performance by a Male Dancer : Li Han in L’Amour Immortel
Outstanding Set Design for Dance : Tsang Man-tung for L’Amour Immortel
Tang Ya gave a superb display of Chinese Dance technique, illuminating the choreography with her plasticity, lyricism, and lightness. She vividly conveyed Nie Xiaoqian’s emotional journey as she evolved from the heartless ghost who sets out to seduce Ning Caichen to the fearless lover who sacrifices herself to save him.
Li Han’s heartfelt portrayal of Ning Caichen brings out both the comic and poignant aspects of the character, perfectly embodying his youth and innocence, his unfaltering love for Nie Xiaoqian, and his grief when she ends her existence. He dances throughout with glorious fluidity and innate elegance, combined with immaculate accuracy, strength, and control.
