International acclaimed choreographer Shen Wei returns to the Lincoln Center with his latest contemporary operatic dance Dongpo: Life in Poems. It is produced and performed by the China Oriental Performing Arts Group with live guqin music by Zhao Xiaoxia. The production is based on the poetry and life experiences of the renowned Chinese poet Su Dongpo (1037-1101) who lived in the Song Dynasty and transforms the comprehension of poetry into self-perception, then externalizes it through body movement and audiovisual contemporary expressions.
