This dance production is a contemporary extension of Nüshu (“women’s script”), the written language developed and used exclusively by women in Jiangyong county, Hunan province, China, which has a four-hundred-year history.

Inspired by Nüshu and winner of two awards at the 2008 Hong Kong Dance Awards, HerStory is the final part of “Women’s Trilogy” created by renowned choreographer Helen Lai. The dance idiom is likened to writing in Chinese, from which emerge emotive personal stories of women and evoke collective memories. By weaving in the writings of two female authors from Hong Kong, Xi Xi and Wong Bik-wan, along with dance, music and imagery, Lai is joining hands with Hong Kong Dance Company to re-stage HerStory in this December.
