2024/25 Season |

Artistic Director’s Message

Welcome to our 45th Anniversary season! I am beyond excited to share about our milestone year and how Hong Kong Ballet continues to live out its ‘never standing still’ mantra. We are always moving forward and never content to rest on our laurels. This spring we launch ‘Tutu Academy’, our latest short film and photography series that celebrates the universal language of ballet as well as the wonderful strangeness of the world we all live in!

This historic season we will premiere four fabulous full-length productions: The Wizard of Oz, a fantastical journey with Dorothy and friends, The Butterfly Lovers, the classic Chinese legend of star-crossed lovers, Frida, based on the poignant life of acclaimed 20th century surrealist Frida Kahlo, and a breathtaking new Giselle with its compelling story of passion, betrayal and redemption. Families will be swept away by a return to our beloved Hong Kongthemed The Nutcracker during the festive season and a charming Ballet Carnival for Kids with its interactive ALICE (in wonderland) activities, including a memorable Mad Hatter Tea Party.

In the community our impact has never been greater. To more deeply reflect the artistic growth and popularity of our educational programmes, we’ve expanded our training offerings to a new purpose-built Wong Chuk Hang location this spring and renamed the programme the Hong Kong Academy of Ballet to reflect the programme’s professional aspirations, and to honour the original name of our organisation when it was founded 45 years ago. Additionally, we continue to ensure that dance is a vital part of Hong Kong’s social and cultural fabric with dynamic community engagement activities for tens of thousands of children and adults in our vibrant city every year..

Thank you for all your support, and let’s keep the joyful momentum flowing this 2024/25 Season!
