Art School Musical

Edward Lam Dance Theatre is returning to Macao with Art School Musical, a thought provoking reflection about love and art. The Hong Kong director and playwright reinvents The Butterfly Lovers’ legend, a classic Chinese work frequently adapted into a diversity of performing expressions. Premiered last May, the piece is Lam’s vibrant, humorous and personal vision tackling a variety of themes, from gender issues to the essence of ingenuity.

Featuring Macao’s rising star Jordan Cheng, the cast for this new interpretation includes 18 actors, mostly from Taiwan and Hong Kong, in a wonderfully scored version that resets the classic tale into a contemporary school of arts. Providing thoughtful answers to some of life’s big questions, the story develops from a triangular relationship between students, two boys and a girl, all struggling with their own reality.
