Over the years, this not-for-profit dance organization, Han Fong Dance Ensemble, has been promoting and staging Chinese dances in the country while winning accolades in Hong Kong and mainland China. Next year, 2016, marks the 10th anniversary of HFDE’s founding, and our guests explain not only Chinese dances and the history of the dance ensemble but also the reasons for this retrospective performance.
