8/F Platform X focuses on Asia, summoning up artists from Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Shanghai and Hong Kong to fuse the old with the new. Tradition and modernity is explored and questioned as they interact with each other: contemporary surprises pervade in the allure of traditional dance, while deep-rooted tradition cannot be ignored in contemporary choreography.

When the old encounters the new in a parallel universe, they compete while simultaneously learning from one another, introducing new inspirations and creativity to create links between local and other Asian dance, and turn the spotlight on the fascinating trends in crossover performances.
