The dance drama Wing Chun was written by Feng Shuangbai, chairman of the China Dancers Association, co-directed by the acclaimed choreographers in the Mainland, Han Zhen and Zhou Liya and performed by Shenzhen Opera and Dance Theatre. The story begins with the 20th century film Wing Chun, presenting two parallel narratives: the "backstage" story of the film crew, and the "on-screen" journey of Ip Man’s struggles in Hong Kong. The performance integrates martial arts with classical and modern dance, providing the audience with a captivating visual experience.

 

This special edition features a talented Hong Kong production team and artists, bringing new exciting elements to the performance. One highlight is the new theme song Wing Chun, produced, composed and sung by renowned local artist, George Lam, with lyrics by Keith Chan. Local conductor Fung Ka-hing will lead The Symphonic Pops in a live accompaniment. Additionally, a graduate of The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, Huang Danyang will also be part of the performance.
