Contemplion: A Very Contemporary Lion Dance
Aristree, Quarry Bay 
Why We Recommend it
Hong Kong choreographer David Leung rejuvenates an old tradition by throwing contemporary dance moves and modern music into the mix.
Description
A new dance inspired by Hong Kong’s long lion dancing tradition, Contemplion brings together lion dance performers, parkour-exponents, silk and rope specialists, pole dancers, aerial performance artists along with specialised lighting, live video, electronic music arrangements and costume design.
The unusual project combines contemporary dance and aesthetics with a tradition that has deep ties to Cantonese Kung Fu, as it is explored in Zolima Citymag’s interview with the Kung Fu master of lion.
