With over 10 performances and activities, US audiences will get a glimpse into Chinese artists' original vitality and imagination. The event aims to promote international cooperation and people-to-people exchange through cultural interaction.

Lady White Snake is a groundbreaking reimagining of China's folk legend, The Tale of the White Snake. Moving beyond the traditional narrative, this production transforms a thousand-year-old story into a profound exploration of the human psyche, where dance becomes a language of deep psychological revelation.

Zhang Xiaoding, general manager of the Shanghai Grand Theatre, says that the company recreated the dance in 2021 as an innovation: "We want genres to converse and converge to retell the legend through the interplay of classical ballet and Chinese dance."

Tan Yuanyuan, a former principal ballerina of the San Francisco Ballet, director Zhou Ke, and Zhang merged their talents in a bold experimentation to retell the Chinese legend of White Snake.
