Yabin Wang first traveled the world as a dancer before becoming a prolific choreographer, subtly blending various styles of traditional Chinese dance with contemporary dance techniques.

For Journey to the West, which draws its inspiration from a great classic of Chinese literature, she collaborated with French composer Laurent Petitgirard, whose symphonic music inspired her to create a journey with cinematic aspects of breathtaking beauty.

At the crossroads of East and West, the choreographer breaks boundaries through the language of the body to capture the essence of the original work: a quest for spirituality.
