Season II In Progress

After the success of the performance of Emerging Choreographers Series I, Taking Off, on 19 and 20 October 2007, rehearsals for Season II of the Series started immediately, in which 5 emerging choreographers, Lai Tak-wai, Jo Leung, Anthony Suen, Chloe Wong, and Wu Yi-san, began creating their new works.

By the end of December 2007, the central concepts of the 5 works had been developed, and review sessions were held on 28 December for the choreographers to show their works-in-progress. Besides the project’s Mentors, leading Hong Kong choreographer Willy Tsao also attended the reviews, and discussed the works with emerging choreographers. After the discussions, the emerging choreographers will be busy fine tuning their choreographies, and will present their exciting new works on 16 and 17 February 2008 at the Theatre of Sheung Wan Civic Centre.
