Hong Kong-based dance company TS Crew is launching Hong Kong Soul, a new platform to showcase the Hong Kong contemporary dance and performance scene. This summer at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, its first edition comprises three programmes.
There will be a remake on Kung Fu and the Lion dance with beatboxing, martial arts, tricking and parkour (TS Crew’s No Dragon No Lion at C aurora), intimate life-and-death stories of human beings, cats and cities by a 63-year-old choreographer / dancer (Cheuk Yin Mui’s Diary VII: The Story of…at C aurora) and three bursts of politically-infused contemporary movement (The (Hong) Kong Girls triple bill of work by PK Wong, Alice Ma and Justyne Li at Summerhall).
All three programmes run from 2 to 13 August at Edinburgh Festival Fringe with previews at RADA in London on 29 and 30 July.
