OUR LABYRINTH, Taipei Fine Arts Museum
OUR LABYRINTH was originally performed at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum in 2015 and again at Centre Pompidou in 2017. Against the backdrop of the pandemic, this version is created specifically for New York City and The Met as a reflection on this moment of instability and change, in collaboration with legendary American choreographer and artistic director of New York Live Arts, Bill T. Jones.
This will be the first live performance to take place at The Met Fifth Avenue since its reopening on August 29 after closing down temporarily due to the pandemic.
This program is supported by Taiwan's Ministry of Culture and Taipei Cultural Center in New York.
