About this event
“Move” is a work-in-progress by NUS Chinese Drama. It features excerpts of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, which will be used in the group’s collaboration with NUS Chinese Orchestra during NUS Arts Festival 2023.
Focusing on the use of body and movement to express the texts of the Scottish play, performers explore how the text can be embodied and brought to life. The showcase seeks to explore through body movement how works of literature from centuries ago can still move us today.
Dialogue will be presented in Mandarin with no surtitles.
