Dance Drama ‘Lotus’
ADAPTED from a story inspired by the painters and sculptors of Dunhuang’s Mogao Grottoes, “Lotus” tells the story of a clay sculptor who creates a painted statue for the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, inspired by the qualities of beauty and sincerity in the lotus, a sacred image in Buddhism.
Choreographer Zhao Xiaogang borrows the exquisite body language of the Dunhuang wall murals and Buddhist statuary to tell the story of the sculptor’s journey of cultivation and learning, searching for the origin of life as he carries his sculpture across vast distances of land and sea.
Lotus is a celebration of humanity’s persistent search for true love, goodness, and deeply cherished wishes.
