Synopsis

After years of creating choreography and nurturing dancers in Singapore, dans festival brings together four established choreographers from Singapore to return to their first love-dancing on stage.

Kuik Swee Boon, Silvia Yong, Jeffrey Tan and Albert Tiong have dedicated their lives to cultivating a professional dance scene in Singapore. As seasoned dance-makers in their 40s, this work is an expression of intimate reflections from the paths they have chosen to take as dance artists, and the developments in their personal lives after retiring from the stage.

Artistically directed by Kulk Swee Boon, the presentation is a collaborative culmination of four individual artistries, performed with an assured command of the stage that comes from decades of dedication to their art.

Above 40《四十不惑》was commissioned by Esplanade's da:ns festival 2015

World Premiere: October 2015Esplanade da:ns festival 2015, Esplanade Theatre Studio, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, Singapore
