Hong Kong Ballet's award-winning production The Butterfly Lovers will make its debut performance in New York from Aug 22 to 24. Often referred to as the "Chinese Romeo and Juliet", this thousand-year-old folklore is being reimagined as ballet. Since its world premiere in Hong Kong last October, the production has won six Hong Kong Dance Awards. The choreography blends Eastern and Western elements, continuing Hong Kong Ballet's tradition of cross-cultural exploration. (Reporter/Video: Bilin Lin)
