“Make love, not war”—ancient Greek comedy comes to life

As far back as 411 BCE, Aristophanes was using his bold wit to call for peace in times of war. His play Lysistrata broke new ground by placing women at the heart of the story and it remains one of 11 surviving comedies from ancient Greece. Now the Hong Kong Arts Festival teams up with celebrated Greek director Katerina Evangelatos and the Shanghai Dramatic Arts Centre to revive this classic in a Chinese-language adaptation. Staying true to the original’s outrageous humour and theatrical flair, the production infuses Lysistrata with music, dance and satire to tell the story of how tenderness can triumph over force.

Rosas danst Rosas, an iconic piece in the history of postmodern dance, is a fierce interplay of synchronisation and de-synchronisation. Four female dancers perform everyday movements and evoking familiar moments like sleeping, working or simply existing. These vehement yet intimate gestures have now mesmerised audiences around the world for more than four decades. This iconic work is a perfect showcase of Rosas' signature movement language and choreographic style.

“Their relentless repetition is extraordinarily compelling”
