Discover the pulsating INterstices—an odyssey of contemporary dance full of tension and release

Premiering at the East Kowloon Cultural Centre—The Hall, City Contemporary Dance Company’s landmark 2026 production INterstices, created by Artistic Director Sang Jijia, explores the hidden spaces of our hyper-dense metropolis. Combining high-voltage physicality with multimedia stagecraft, the work distils the restless pulse of urban life into a compelling exploration of body, space and psyche.

In a world where towers close in and rhythms accelerate without pause, INterstices deconstructs spatial density to discover fleeting moments of stillness. Physical expansion and release combine with rhythms that hasten and relent, creating a buffer zone where contemporary minds can find room for reflection and repose.

Advance bookings will start at 10am on 16 October 2025
