About

This stirring production blends classic literature with expressive Shanghai-style ballet, showcasing the beauty of human connection and youthful idealism through graceful choreography and Jiangnan romanticism.

The performance delivers a powerful artistic statement, using ballet's visual poetry to honor life's purest emotions and most resilient spirits. Drawing from China's rich literary tradition while incorporating distinctive Shanghai flair, the production creates a unique cultural dialogue between past and present. Dancers bring to life themes of hope, peace, and perseverance through movements that range from delicately nuanced to powerfully athletic.

The staging beautifully merges regional Jiangnan aesthetics with universal human themes, offering audiences both a celebration of local heritage and a meditation on timeless values. Traditional elements like oil-paper umbrellas and stone bridges appear reimagined through contemporary ballet vocabulary, creating a visually stunning bridge between folk tradition and modern stagecraft.
