Background

We are welcome volunteers to join us for the Butterfly Lovers & the International Ballet Gala in October 2024! This thrilling world premiere of The Butterfly Lovers from HKB Choreographer-in-Residence Hu Song Wei Ricky and and his wife Mai Jingwen tells the epic Chinese legend of humble scholar Liang Shanbo and aristocratic heiress Zhu Yingtai, who disguises herself as a boy in order to study at a prestigious academy. The International Ballet Gala grand evening promises to be an enthralling must-see event with a dazzling programme of dynamic contemporary pieces and mesmerising classical excerpts from Swan Lake, Le Corsaire and Don Quixote, as well as a pair of iconic pas de deux by twentieth-century master, George Balanchine—the effervescent Tarantella pas de deux and the majestic Tchaikovsky pas de deux.

What we have

Great opportunity to involve our show operation and earn valuable experience. A briefing will be provided on-site.
