"Asian Festivals Exchange" at M1 Contact Contemporary Dance Festival 2018 | ArtsEquator Thinking and Talking about Arts and Culture in Southeast Asia Articles Bernie Ng K(-A-)O by Kenji Shinohe August 23, 2018 By Bernice Lee (1300 words, five-minute read) “Asian Festivals Exchange” puts together works selected from two East Asian festivals — Yokohama Dance Collection and Seoul Dance Collection — two works performed by T. H. E. Second Company , and a work-in-progress supported by M1 CONTACT Contemporary Dance Festival and Seoul Performing Arts Festival. It is a very full evening of dance, and the audience seems generally to leave in a slight daze — a mixture of feeling refreshed, overstimulated, heavy and entertained. As one might be after a lush, rich meal.
