China’s classic dance sensation, The Legend of Dunhuang will make its Australian debut at The Star on Friday September 28 and Saturday September 29 for two shows only. Gold Coast audiences will be taken on a journey back in time to experience the artistic and culturally significant piece of China’s history, carefully choreographed into a creative blend of Chinese classical and modern dance.

Exquisitely produced by the famous Gansu Dance Troupe, The Legend of Dunhuang is renowned for its detailed backdrops of breathtaking sceneries, Buddhist art and colourful costumes used to capture the memorable tale of friendship, humanity and harmony that will stay with viewers long after the final scene.

Set in Dunhuang, a city in north-west China’s Gansu Province during the Tang dynasty, the dance acts as a moving account of Dunhuang’s history as the viewer sashays between the ancient and modern worlds.
