Dancing in Place 2018 at Urbanscapes –
Dancing by the river. Dancing on a bridge. Dancing up a ladder. Dancing underground.
New dance works performed outdoors by the River of Life area in Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown. Malaysian dancers respond to the site where the whole city began, letting past, present and future resonate in their bodies.
