Searching Blue at The Coronet Theatre, London
10–12 July 2026, 7:30pm
How often do we stop to notice our surroundings and the people we pass by each day?
Searching Blue《寻蓝》is a hybrid indoor and outdoor performance from The Human Expression (T.H.E) Dance Company, one of Singapore’s seminal contemporary dance collectives, accompanied by a live soundscape by Malaysian sound artist Kent Lee.
Starting with a full-length performance in The Coronet Theatre auditorium, five dance artists will then guide the audience to a surprising nearby venue, unfolding across a series of garden sites and a backdrop of spectacular architecture.
Created by T.H.E’s founding artistic director Kuik Swee Boon, the piece is inspired by his daily commute, the relationships we have with our environment and the people around us. Searching Blue《寻蓝》offers intimate engagements between dancers and the audience, where subtle gestures and live sound shape an atmosphere of reflection and closeness.
Whether you choose to respond to the dancers’ gentle invitations to move with them, or simply observe from a distance, Searching Blue《寻蓝》offers a tender reminder: even amidst noise and bustle, it is still possible to pause, to sense, and to connect.
Pán《盤》by T.H.E Dance Company
6 & 7 November 2026, 7:30pm
Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre's Auditorium
Pán《盤》draws inspiration from the cultural roots of its creators, Kuik Swee Boon and Kim Jae Duk. The Chinese title, “盤”, is a word rich in meaning and found across several Asian languages and cultures.
At the heart of the work is the Chinese creation myth of Pangu, whose body transforms into the elements of nature—a metaphor for transculturation and the continuous convergence of cultures.
The performance unfolds through the distinct choreographic voices of Swee Boon and Jae Duk, before culminating in a collaborative epilogue. Featuring guest artists Tung Ka Wai and Wheelsmith (Danial Bawthan) alongside the dance artists of T.H.E, Pán《盤》continues to evolve with each iteration, inviting audiences to consider whether a shared positionality can be crafted for our contemporary world.
Originally conceived as a live performance, Pán《盤》premiered digitally in 2021 as a livestreamed production and was later presented as a ticketed video-on-demand programme at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it received the Best Performance award at the Asian Arts Awards.
