A dance through time
Audience taken on a journey to Song Dynasty painter
In addition to the stunning rendering of the painting, this dance drama also presents many intangible cultural heritage techniques such as seal cutting, silk weaving, Chinese painting pigment production, pen making and Hui-style ink production in an artistic way, allowing the audience to appreciate the beauty of their dance pose, and at the same time feel the touch of traditional culture.
In addition, the stage design of concentric circles, the costume design that accurately displays the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty, the long-lasting soundtrack and the exquisite lighting together create an immersive atmosphere for the audience to appreciate the painting, allowing it to wander in the legendary traditional Chinese aesthetics.
"Every frame is an ancient painting, and The Vast Land is alive," says a member of the audience after watching the dance drama.
Another member of the audience agreed: "The most important reason why the dance drama became popular is its deep cultivation and excavation of excellent traditional culture. This is a manifestation of cultural self-confidence, and it also awakens the audience's sense of ritual and identification with traditional Chinese culture."
