Whoever choreographed this is brilliant. The staging and the use of non-dancers are fantastic!

I just keep finding more and more good works coming out of Taiwan.
Open Dans 2012
I never thought a hip hop choreography can sustain longer than 10 minutes as a piece on stage… but they proved me wrong. This is probably one of the most entertaining piece I’ve seen in years… and it’s very cleverly choreographed.
A trailer that I shot and edited for Shu-Yi and Dancers while I visited Taipei. I was quite blown away watching their rehearsals, I tried to capture as much as I could of what I thought made it interesting for me. I hope I did it justice.
There’s something about this video that keeps me transfixed. It’s a bit haunting, a tad hypnotizing, and partially comforting.
new work by Shu-Yi Chou premiering in a month.
Two upcoming performances from International Dance Theater. I’m finally dancing again after a year of break from performing.

Hey There! Yes… I went to see their show. I was invited by one of their former dancers. Their latest work is superb. I wish I could understand Chinese fully, because they integrated some spoken words into their work. What would you like to know about them? My mandarin is quite limited and I cannot read Chinese, I can’t find much information on them either via the web. However, I know their former dancers and I have been visiting their space. I can easily help you find information that you may want to know. This is their website: http://www.horse.org.tw/
If you like their stuff, you may also want to check out Shu-Yi and Dancers. He’s now one of the most talked about company here. His works have been featured in Europe, US (ADF), and Asia.
Good luck! :)
