Hijauan

Hijauan is a performance that transports audiences to a realm where nature’s grandeur meets cultural diversity. Presented by contemporary dance company Dua Space Dance Theatre, the founder of the company, Anthony Meh, personally choreographed "Hijauan" as a heartfelt ode to Malaysia, and celebrates the rich diversity of Malaysia through a blend of traditional elements into contemporary dance styles. Celebrating their 25th anniversary this year, we chat with Lim Hong Jie, a senior dancer and an Assistant Artistic Director with Dua Space, to find out more about this show.
