HCM CITY — Artists from the HCM City-based Arabesque dance group will perform Chuyen Ke Nhung Chiec Giay (Story of Shoes) at the HCM City Opera tonight and tomorrow night.

This will be the fifth time the show is performed in the city.

Directed by Nguyen Tan Loc, the show is about the life of dancers and their passion for dancing. This time, the show will include the stories of Hai Anh and Huu Thuan, two young, talented dancers who received the silver prize at the South Korean Contemporary Dance Festival in May 2012. These two parts, which are being performed for the first time in Viet Nam, won choreographer Ngo Thanh Phuong the golden prize at the festival.

In order to bring audiences more high-quality programmes, Arabesque dance group will perform Moc (Wood) again in October and Suong Som (Morning Dew) in November.-VNS
