Chinese dancer Xie Xin will present her dance show “From In” at the Guangming Culture Hall this Sunday. Audience members can claim free tickets on the WeChat account “szgmwhg” starting at 10 a.m. Wednesday.

“From In,” an award-winning piece at the 29th Germany Hannover International Choreography Competition, was born from an idea that “as human beings, we share memories with each other when we meet at the same moment and in the same space, which creates a special link,” says Xie.

The piece, which premiered at the National Center for the Performing Arts in Beijing in 2015, has also been staged at the 48th Kuopio Dance Festival in Northern Savonia, Finland, in early 2017.

Born in 1985 in Ji’an, Jiangxi Province, Xie learned traditional Chinese dance from her mother. In the beginning, she didn’t want to become a dancer, but was later drawn to the idea of expressing herself with body movements. In 2004, she graduated as a modern dancer from the Guangdong Dance School and has worked with contemporary dance theaters including the Guangdong Modern Dance Company, Jin Xing Dance Theater and Beijing Dance LDTX.

In 2014, she founded her own theater, Xie Xin Dance Theater. As a choreographer, Xie has won a number of awards, including the gold award at the 14th International Dance Competition in Rome, Italy in 2015, and the gold award at the Seoul International Dance Competition in 2016 in South Korea.
