Vietnamese contemporary acrobatic production "Teh Dar" will make its Hong Kong debut on November 14 and 15, bringing the rich cultural traditions of Vietnam's Central Highlands to the stage through a striking blend of aerial acrobatics, music and dance.
Presented by Lune Production, often dubbed the Vietnamese Cirque du Soleil, the show combines daring aerial performances with the sounds of traditional instruments to celebrate the region's millennia-old Gong Culture, recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage.
Meaning "going in circles" in the language of the K'Ho people, "Teh Dar" reflects the eternal cycle of life. Its red stage evokes the distinctive soil of the highlands, while live musicians play gongs, buffalo horns, bamboo xylophones and long drums.
Following a successful European tour, the production is returning to Hong Kong after previous critically acclaimed performances. The New York Times has praised it as "a hypnotic, daring spectacle".
The show is part of the fourth Asia+ Festival and the sixth Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Culture and Arts Festival. Performances will take place at the Tuen Mun Town Hall Auditorium.
