As Hong Kong’s cultural ambassador, Hong Kong Ballet will open Hong Kong Week [email protected] with an exciting video screening of its exuberant production ALICE (in wonderland) with live music by Guangzhou Symphony Orchestra at Guangzhou Opera House’s Experimental Theater on 17 April 2021 at 7:30pm. The charity screening is free and by invitation only. Along with fun and interactive fringe activities videos, the original performance will also be available on Tencent Art during 17 April - 16 July to mainland Chinese audiences for one month after purchasing a ticket. This exciting virtual tour is supported by the HKSAR Government.

Choreographed by HKB’s Artistic Director Septime Webre, ALICE (in wonderland) is a fusion of dance, theater, and puppetry that showcases a dizzying array of dances that merge traditional ballet with contemporary energy, capturing the topsy-turvy magic of Wonderland and the bizarre characters that confront Alice on her incredible journey. Featuring over-the-top physicality, exhilarating costumes designed by Cirque de Soleil designer Liz Vandal, bold, hypnotic sets designed by James Kronzer and a thrilling original score by Matthew Pierce, this giddy, over-the-top re-imagining of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale promises exhilarating fun for all ages.
