Synopsis
Synopsis

Perfect for both first-timers and seasoned contemporary dance audiences! Experience captivating moments of sensitivity and dynamism at this annual free, family-friendly series, Dance at Dusk.

 

2025’s programme features an extended 25-minute excerpt from Festival Director Kuik Swee Boon’s As It Fades, performed by T.H.E Second Company. Rooted in themes of memory, heritage, and the ephemeral nature of tradition, As It Fades invites audiences to reflect on the threads that connect us to the past and shape our present identities.

 

Following the success of 2023’s shorter presentation, this year’s performance once again integrates poetic live audio description by Access Path Productions—enhancing the experience for visually impaired audiences while offering all audiences a fresh, contemplative lens on the choreography.
