Xianwuren Dance Studio Lotus

Date: Sept 24 - 7:30 pm

Venue: National Center for the Performing Arts

Price: 80-400 yuan

The dance drama tells the story of a clay modeler at the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, who after perceiving the beauty and sincerity of the "Lotus" (a sacred image in Buddhist poetry), creates a painted statue for the Dunhuang caves. Choreographer Zhao Xiaogang borrows the exquisite body language of the Dunhuang wall murals and Buddhist statuary to tell the story of this clay modeler's journey of cultivation and learning, searching for the origin of life, as he carries his sculpture great distances across land and sea. It celebrates humanity's persistent search for true love, goodness, and cherished wishes.
