Eun-Me Ahn - Post Orientalist Express

Post Orientalist Express – a journey in colour, humour and full speed. Post-Orientalist Express is far from a traditional dance performance: South Korean choreographer and dancer Eun-Me Ahn weaves together the pulse and club feel of pop culture with traditional Asian dance.

The result is wild, fast-paced and humorous.

A high-octane experience that challenges Western stereotypes of East Asia.

She seeks a new cultural identity that can serve as a bridge between the traditional and the modern.

Through costumes, music and pop culture, clichés are confronted and exaggerated to the point of absurdity, highlighting the contradictions.

She takes to the stage alongside 14 dancers.

There are many costume changes, and the set design is dazzling.

The challenge is to keep up.

Post-Orientalist Express is perfect for anyone who wants to experience powerful performing arts, where deep seriousness meets an unabashed celebration in all its colours.

Running time: 80 min.
