"While writing the dance drama, I learned about the history of lion dance and I realized that it's a Chinese traditional art form, which goes beyond the performers' breathtaking techniques."
Premiered at Guangzhou Grand Theater last September, Awakening Lion won the "dance drama award" at the 11th Lotus Award, the highest dance award in China in 2018.
The dance drama will be staged in Shanghai on May 26 and 27, competing for the the 16th Wenhua Award at the 12th China Art Festival.
