Early Bird Offer: save 30% until June 15th, 2025. 

The dance production Lady White Snake is led by international ballet artist TAN Yuanyuan as the artistic director. This globally acclaimed dance production is the latest expression of the “White Snake” story: a timeless Chinese tale through a thousand years, and also a journey of discovery of the female’s self-awareness. Through contemporary fusion of eastern and western dance language, it presents a spiritual metamorphosis and rebirth. Going beyond the classical elements of the “White Snake” story, the production liberates itself from the constraints of traditional ancient myths with a complete restructuring, which enables the delivery of highly contemporary symbolic significance, eliciting a wholly new interpretation of this age-old folk legend for the audience.
