POLITICAL AVANT-GARDE IN CHINESE THEATRE ARTS

SAT 30.5.|  19:00 | ARNE-JACOBSEN-FOYER | AN INTRODUCTION TO THE THEATRE OF DANNY YUNG AND XIAO KE | A thousand years before Europe discovered opera, Chinese theatre had already long established the combination of vocal and dramatic arts.

Young Chinese no longer have a natural understanding of symbolism and codification in the theatre of their own country and Europeans are even less familiar with these concepts. One of the objectives of this discussion is to provide an introduction to the symbolic code of Kun opera which forms the basis of Danny Yung’s performance. This introduction is highly recommended for all visitors attending events over the weekend.

WITH Danny Yung (Hongkong), Xiao Ke (Shanghai)
