Yè – Echoes Beyond Time is a luminous double bill exploring the season’s theme “Yè”, a radiant light passed from the past into the present. The programme opens with “Ah Ma” (Grandma), created by Creative Director Benedict Soh, a tender ode to grandmothers and the silent women who kept families alive within the home. It is followed by “Cut: Through Shadows and Light”, choreographed by Artistic Director Neo Jenny, which immerses audiences in a dreamlike journey inspired by the craft of Chinese paper cutting, where memory, gesture, and forgotten artisans come to life.

Though different in subject, both works honour Unsung Heroes—those whose names may not be written in history, yet whose impact lives on in language, rituals and hands. Their light, as suggested by the character “烨”, is enduring rather than loud. Audiences are invited to witness how tradition and contemporary expression intertwine in a shared cultural narrative.
