Odes To Heroes 英歌 by Guangzhou Song and Dance Theatre

The dance drama Odes To Heroes centers around the Yingge Dance, renowned as the “Chinese Martial Dance”. Through the fantasy time-space journey of the young man Chen Xinyuan, it recreates the struggle history and the great sense of family and country of the ancestors in the Chaoshan hometown of overseas Chinese when they “headed to Southeast Asia”.
