HA NOI (VNS) — Young people in the capital will have the opportunity to join Halloween celebrations with a contemporary ballet gala on October 30-31.

Titled Dance with the Ghost, the event will bring together artists from the Viet Nam National Opera Ballet Theatre and young singers from the Viet Nam Youth Theatre, who will celebrate a carnival programme and perform contemporary dances.

The gala will be divided into two parts. The first is a chain workshop for those who want to experiment with contemporary dance. Classes will be led by a group of professional artists from the Viet Nam National Opera Ballet Theatre.

The second part of the gala is a contemporary dance programme, titled The Beginning, directed by choreographer Nguyen Viet Ha and performed by dancers of the Contemporary Dance Group Ha Noi and singers Trang Thien and Tung Anh. The Beginning will conjure up images of the evil world inside each human being and touch on the connection between humans and devils, emotions and reality.

Dance with the Ghost will be held at the newly trendy hangout, The Yard, on Pho Duc Chinh Street. — VNS
