Hung Dance: Push and Pull

An award-winning UK premiere from one of Taiwan’s most exciting dance companies.

Capturing the universal rhythm of giving and receiving, resisting and yielding, this quietly poetic work explores resilience and tenderness in a spellbinding encounter between two exceptional dancers and movement artists.

Both intimate and powerful, the work unfolds with remarkable sensitivity and control, inspired by the principles of Tai Chi and the physics of force and balance. The dancers inhabit the delicate space between attraction and independence, intimacy and autonomy, and through fluid, exacting movement, they shape a profound meditation on connection.

Founded in 2017 by choreographer and artistic director Lai Hung-chung, Hung Dance is a Taiwanese contemporary dance company whose name (翃) means to fly. Lai’s work draws inspiration from daily life, translating emotion and physicality into movement that bridges Tai Chi philosophy and contemporary expression. His acclaimed productions, including Boundless and See You, have toured internationally across Europe, Asia, America, and Africa, earning multiple awards and critical praise.
