Focus Dance Company: Tempestuous
A rich and diverse programme of one masterwork, one popular revival and eight new student works… All were superbly danced.

Nameless Practice by Chien Lin-yi (簡麟懿): “Brim-full of ideas and fabulous images… a really terrific piece that holds the attention from start to finish”
Six works by students alongside Self-Portrait by Hung Tsai-hsi and Hofesh Shechter’s powerful In Your Rooms. The dancing was top drawer
Two fine programmes both featuring a reworking of Ihsan Rustem’s super, tongue-in-cheek Bolero and Tsai Po-cheng’s (蔡博丞) new Dreaminess
12 days; 12 new, short works
Dances that are loud and colourful, dark and forbidding
An afternoon as varied as the dancers’ different movement backgrounds
Enigmatic, mysterious and full of lighting wizardry
Works by Tung I-fen and Bryan Arias plus student choreography
The highlight was Cheng Tsung-lung’s The Wall
Works by French choreographer Lucas Viallefond, Hofesh Shechter dancer Chang Chien-ming, and students
