《八 . 雅》Voyage of the Eight Graces

The Hong Kong Jockey Club Amphitheatre, HKAPA

Presented by Hong Kong Dance Company (HKDance) and co-produced by The TENG Company of Singapore, Voyage of the Eight Graces is proudly sponsored by China Merchants Foundation. This original new work draws inspiration from the cultural essence of the traditional Chinese “Eight Graces”: Music, Go, Calligraphy, Painting, Poetry, Fragrance, Flowers, and Tea. Blending traditional and contemporary theatrical forms, this production elegantly embodies the refined aesthetic of the East. The TENG Ensemble moves beyond classical convention, performing live across a fusion of musical idioms, while the dancers use their body language to explore the spirit of the “Eight Graces”, in contemplating the meaning of life.

Amidst the bustle of urban life, dance, theatre, and music interweave to reveal the rhythm of existence. Each step, dialogue, and melody is a rumination on the “Eight Graces”—a journey of the soul that cultivates wisdom deeply entwined with people and the environment, seeking to restore lost balance and tranquility.

Exploring the philosophy of harmony between Chinese culture and nature, the production embraces the concept of green theatre, prioritising the use of renewable or reusable materials to reduce  carbon footprint, practising environmental responsibility while conserving cultural heritage. This cross-cultural dialogue between Hong Kong and Singapore encapsulates the contemporary appeal of intangible cultural heritage from a unique perspective.

Voyage of the Eight Graces is a “Partner Programme” of the Hong Kong Performing Arts Expo 2026 and a programme of the Asia+ Festival 2026.
