A red-letter dance

Outstanding choreographers from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao worked together on the modern dance drama Love Letters that will air in Guangzhou on Feb 22. Modern dance has been incorporated with hip-hop and tap dance elements, complementing romantic classics from Chopin, Mahler and Ravel. Love Letters traces the journey of five love letters without addresses to various cities over 20 years. The stage design is artistic, with, for example, letters flying all over the stage.
