Following the footprints of a giant Panda, we travel together to the Panda’s hometown – China, to start an imaginary journey in exploring the beauty of the natural landscape, the harmony in the traditional music, the interaction and relation between things and phenomena as well as the composition of the nature– the theory of the five elements (wu xing).
Filled with colorful visuals and interactive sensory stage settings, two dancers will lead the young audience to experience a feast of Chinese culture and stories – from running into bamboo forest, chasing the folklore’s “Nian monsters” with firecrackers, weaving silk in the garden, to flying kites, or even dancing through a river of Chinese ink painting and calligraphy. Pleasant games will be played in a group with the dancers. Young spectators will come to understand how, in Chinese thought, the circular movements in a simple and intuitive way.
