Like Them, Like Us – the making of dance opera Love Streams - 50th Hong Kong Arts Festival

適逢香港藝術節踏入金禧 50 周年， 謹此衷心祝賀。 香港藝術節是本地和國際藝壇一年一 度的盛事，致力為香港文化生活增添 姿彩。鑑於 2022 年年初的第五波疫 情，香港藝術節部分現場演出因場地 關閉而須取消。儘管如此，藝術節 迅速作出應變，一方面將部分演出移 師線上舉行，另一方面如期舉辦多 個線上節目，更開放其中多項節目 供市民免費觀賞。此外，今年的藝 術節還安排把六個現場演出節目改於 2022 年下半年舉行，作為第 50 屆藝 術節的「延續」，巧妙地承接大會主題 「繫」， 亦充分反映香港藝術界的人士 能隨時隨地發揮無限創意，將文化糅 合於市民的生活之中。 香港藝術節將安排在 2022 年 7 月至 11 月期間上演連串多姿多彩的現場 節目，包括︰向一代粵劇名伶致敬 的「新馬師曾名劇展」以及動人心 魄的大型舞作《無極》。為慶祝香 港大會堂 60 周年及香港藝術節 50 周 年，香港小交響樂團將與城市當代 舞蹈團攜手呈獻精湛的聯合音樂會 《影幻形光》。 每屆的香港藝術節均吸引逾 1700 名

本地及海內外藝術家參與，傳統藝術 表演和新穎的當代作品共冶一爐，為 提升香港在國際藝壇的地位和彰顯中 國的豐富文化特色，擔當重要角色，

Striving to enhance the cultural vibrancy of Hong Kong, the HKAF is an annual highlight for arts enthusiasts from home and abroad. Due to the closure of cultural and arts venues during the fifth wave of the pandemic earlier this year, certain in-venue programmes had to be cancelled. This notwithstanding, the HKAF was quick in moving some programmes online while presenting some others (including those open for the public free of charge) as originally planned. Six of these programmes were rescheduled in the latter half of 2022 as a “line-up” to continue the HKAF under the theme “Connected”. It demonstrates the flexibility and creativity of the Hong Kong arts sector in infusing culture in the daily lives of people.

HKAF’s Golden Jubilee and the 60th Anniversary of City Hall.

Every year, more than 1,700 local and international artists take part in the HKAF. With its wide array of traditional performances and innovative contemporary works, the HKAF plays a crucial role in raising Hong Kong’s international reputation in the arts world while highlighting the rich local culture. At the same time, it underpins the strategy to support Hong Kong’s development into an East-meetsWest centre for international cultural exchange under the National 14th FiveYear Plan.

為廣大市民悉心籌辦多元豐富的文藝 節目及活動。我亦感謝贊助商和捐款 人鼎力支持香港藝術節及本港的文化 藝術發展。我祝願香港藝術節圓滿成 功，在往後五十年呈獻更多精采的藝 術節目。希望大家繼續支持香港藝 術節！

I am encouraged to see that despite the tremendous difficulties during the pandemic, the HKAF remains committed to promoting arts education in schools and other outreach activities. In particular, the PLUS programmes of the Festival bring together artists and members of the public through a range of activities such as behind-the-scenes videos, masterclasses, artist dialogues and preand post-performance talks. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the hard work and dedication of the HKAF team who always strives to ensure the Festival’s ongoing success over the past 50 years. My gratitude also goes to all sponsors and donors for their generous support to the HKAF and the local arts and cultural development.

I wish the 50th HKAF a resounding success, bringing to us many more fabulous programmes in the next 50 years. I also look forward to your continued support of the HKAF.

MESSAGE

FROM THE CHAIRMAN

The Hong Kong Arts Festival marks a significant milestone this year. Thank you for joining us in celebrating its 50th edition. Though the pandemic continues to present challenges and has prompted us to be extranimble in our response this year, the Festival’s determination to bring you some of the best in performing arts from across the world remains unabated.

The prevailing conditions made travel difficult and the HKAF once again adapted. Though the fifth wave of the pandemic forced venues to close, the Festival still managed to present an excellent world-class lineup online and will present some of the programmes it couldn’t show, on a deferred schedule later this year. The Hong Kong Arts Festival remains “Connected”—to the world and to its audiences—bringing a range of programmes, including theatre, dance, opera and music. We are convinced that great art, in whatever form, is a tonic and we

hope to provide many memorable moments in this landmark year.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who make the Festival possible. These include the HKSAR Government’s Leisure and Cultural Services Department, which provides an annual subvention; the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, a long-time supporter of the HKAF; and corporate sponsors, charitable foundations and individual donors, for their generous support. Sincere thanks also to all the participating artists, who have brought such joy to Hong Kong audiences during these times, the difficulties of the pandemic notwithstanding.

I hope you will enjoy today’s performance and many others at this year’s Festival as we enter our next 50 years.

Victor Cha Chairman Hong Kong Arts Festival

行政總監的話 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

On behalf of the Festival team, I warmly welcome you to this programme at the 50th Hong Kong Arts Festival.

Due to the pandemic, many invenue performances have had to be rescheduled—some were postponed to the second half of 2022, while some will be joining the 2023 line-up.

Before we embrace the long-awaited new season of live performances in 2023, do join us in a small roundup—including this very film you will be watching—as 2022 draws to a close. We’d like to take the time to appreciate the efforts of all of our co-workers (whether on stage or behind the scenes) who made this possible, and to hope for a successful year ahead. Above all, we hope this film and other programmes from the 50th Hong Kong Arts Festival have brought you comfort and joy.

In this and many other ways, the Festival has been a part of the Hong Kong story during the past 50 years, playing a leading role in the development of the arts in Hong Kong. We will continue to try our best, and sincerely hope that you will stay connected with us long into the future and support our efforts to enhance the city’s cultural environment.

Like Them, Like Us is a documentary that follows the making of Love Streams, a dance opera that fuses two operas–Heart of Coral, a biopic of female Republican writer Xiao Hong, and Women Like Us, a combination of two short stories by Hong Kong author Xi Xi–with gripping dance movements. In this tender, cinematic look at the creative and rehearsal processes of the singers as well as dancers from Hong Kong Dance Company, the personal lives of these performers overlap with those of the characters they play, far removed by time and space, in a way they could never have imagined.

Oscillating between video essay and documentary, the film weaves interviews, opera lyrics and behind-thescenes rehearsal footage into an intricate web of intergenerational conversations about life and death between women, real and fictional.

Love Streams is a two-act dance-opera that interweaves the chamber operas Heart of Coral and Women Like Us–commissioned by the Hong Kong Arts Festival in 2013 and 2021 respectively–helmed by acclaimed choreographer Yang Yuntao. Heart of Coral tells of the tumultuous life of Xiao Hong (1911-1942), one of the most celebrated female writers of the 1930s China, who lived through her short life with a fiery spirit of love and freedom. Women Like Us is a musical tribute to Hong Kong’s literary grande

dame Xi Xi (1937-) and a tale of two women finding hope in solitude, inspired by the protagonists of Xi Xi’s beloved short stories "A Girl Like Me" and "The Cold".

Whether in the frosty winter of the Chinese hinterland in the 1930s, or in urban Hong Kong in the 1980s, the yearning for love seems inseparable from historical, political and social forces, but audience members are sure to find inspiration in the underlying feminist perspectives of these two important modern writers.

紀錄片捕捉了製作團隊在疫 情肆虐底下進行的合樂和舞 蹈彩排，也會深入剖析導演 暨編舞楊雲濤以及其他製作 人、主演的話語。在鏡頭的 中介下，舞者之間相互配合 的肢體動作讓生命的共情被 探索和放大。演出由舞台轉 至大屏幕上，又留於兩者之 間，檢視着生命的脆弱和人 類的複雜性。女性表演者以 柔和細膩的方式塑造角色， 而這正展露出人性如何能成 為兩性最真實的生命寫照。 本片對舞台製作團隊的用心 付出致以無限敬意與感激。 願這部影片能夠成為各人溫 柔的提點，激勵大家在人生 的艱難時期仍要向自己內心 尋求答案，因爲這些存於內 心的選擇或能促使我們在人

生大道上昂首闊步前行。

“Could life be like the theatre? Is living really this easy?”

“Life is nothing but a night at the theatre. What’s most heartening is seeing a flower wither.”

“I can’t.”

This is how the film starts—with a gentle question from the richly nuanced chamber opera Heart of Coral, and a short, succinct reply from Xiao Hong that sets the tone and attitude for the rest of it.

Love Streams is a dance-opera that brings together Heart of Coral, a biography of late Chinese writer Xiao Hong, and Women Like Us, a literary work adapted from Xi Xi’s classic short stories

“A Girl Like Me” and “The Cold”. With music and dance being highly communicative by nature, Love Streams is a conversation among different generations, a multiverse of different realities.

Like Them, Like Us documents the sitzprobes and dance rehearsals behind the stage production—made even more difficult by the pandemic—and we look deep into the words of

the director and choreographer, Yang Yuntao, and other main creators and cast members. A compassionate approach to life is explored and amplified through the interpersonal dynamics of body movements, and, through the power of the lens. Discussions on the fragility of life and the complex nature of human psychology are taken from the stage to the widescreen and everywhere in between. Although these are tender and delicate portrayals of women, these powerful life narratives can apply to both men and women together as humanity. Everyone involved in the film is nothing but humbled and grateful for all the hard work that went into the stage production. May it serve as a tender reminder for anyone at some point, even when life hits hard, to look inward for answers, because there we find a choice and an invitation to let life streams open up and carry us forward.

Stephanie Chung Film Director

The women who leapt through time

Love Streams is an eclectic piece that combines two chamber operas, Heart of Coral and Women Like Us. While the production is based on works involving two women writers (the former an operatic biography of mainland author Xiao Hong and the latter an adaptation of two short stories by Hong Kong writer Xi Xi), it is brought to life by choreographer Yang Yuntao, who turns the musical numbers into a music and visual feast of physical movements.

On the surface, Xiao Hong and Xi Xi have little in common— Xiao rose to fame in 1930s China

while Xi Xi is an active novelist writing from contemporary Hong Kong—except for their detached, almost unsympathetic portrayal of profoundly real female characters. Take a closer look, however, and you’ll see how the two were drawn, in different stages of their lives, to the port city of Hong Kong: Xi Xi moved here from Shanghai in her early teens, while Xiao Hong spent the last two years of her life in the city, where she completed her magnum opus, Tales of Hulan River. Yang’s remake of the two musical texts—documented in detail by Chung—thus becomes part of Hong Kong’s rich diasporic and literary history. But you’d be wrong if you thought

that the documentary was simply a byproduct of Yang’s dance opera, as Chung was determined to put her own contemplative spin on the production.

Chung’s first impression of Love Streams? A dizzying multiverse composed of multiple languages—music and dance, Cantonese and Mandarin—and conversations between women of different backgrounds and generations, including Xiao Hong and Xi Xi as well as librettists Wong Yi and Yan Yu, creating a dialogue that Chung readily takes part in using her own voice.

Interview with Stephanie Chung

Capturing the unseen

To Chung, who grew up alongside an orchestra and plays several instruments herself, registering anything musicrelated has become second nature. She muses: “Since I’m not trained in theatre, I’m relatively free to do my own thing without getting trapped by preset boundaries, and I’m able to maintain an inquisitive mind while shooting.” She went on to do exactly just that— uncovering small details that would otherwise pass unnoticed in a live theatre setting, especially the unsung heroes hidden in the orchestra pit. “I like to think about the chemistry between the narrative, and the visual and musical elements. In the opera, Xiao Hong has had her throat cut open due to a misdiagnosis, a scene that the composer expresses through text painting: a shrill squeak produced by crotales and a vibraphone stroked by a double bass bow. I literally had goosebumps all over me! This is the power of the camera—to visualise the angst and dread experienced by the character, and to capture things that the naked eye cannot,” Chung says.

This is perhaps why Yang’s philosophy clicks so well with Chung, with the two sharing an appreciation of little things such as self-restraint. “When Yuntao told us, ‘Sometimes you can be seen only if you concede’, he means that we need to respect one another’s roles and positions without intruding on others’ boundaries. Dancers dance. Singers sing. That’s it—and voilà, everything falls into place,” she explains.

A journey of healing and reconciliation

Just as involvement in the arts often does, making the documentary served as a healing process for Chung—much like the thangka paintings she loves. And unlike many people, she sees something beyond the short life of Xiao Hong. “Xiao Hong died when she was only 31, and most people would think of her life as a tragedy. But her words show otherwise—a defiant spirit and love of life shine through in, ironically, her brilliant depiction of death,” Chung says.

Similarly, Chung’s work is permeated by a constant reflection on death, though not necessarily in a tragic sense. The shooting of the film coincided with a dramatic event in Chung’s private life, with a close friend experiencing a tragic

loss. This led Chung to rethink the meaning of her work. “We are weighed down by our past and various emotions like regret and trauma, and this is because there’s too much noise in our heads,” she says. “Through this film, and through the ‘voices’ of these dancers and singers, I want to help the audience find their own voice amid this noise, and to reconcile with their past selves.”

Rather than simply preaching positive thinking, Chung hopes the documentary provides companionship and a source of strength that helps viewers face up to their past and live in the present.

Chan Hing-yan is currently James Chen & Yuen-Han Chan Professor in Music at the University of Hong Kong. Lauded for their subtle mediation between Chinese elements and Western idioms, his compositions have been heard around the world at prestigious festivals. Recent works include four chamber operas (2021, 2018, 2015, 2013).

Daniel Lo Ting-cheung is one of the most active composers in Hong Kong, frequently commissioned by leading local institutions such as the Hong Kong Arts Festival, Hong Kong Sinfonietta and Hong Kong New Music Ensemble.

Lo’s works cover a wide range of musical genres, from orchestral to vocal pieces. One of Lo’s current compositional interests is seeking ways to integrate music with Hong Kong literature.

Lo completed his PhD (Composition) at the University of York in the UK in 2017, fully supported by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Music and Dance Fund.
