Hung Dance brings Birdy to the Meany Center on Friday, December 4—a piece that uses traditional Chinese opera headdresses adorned with pheasant feathers to explore themes of freedom and wildness. If you're curious about how classical costume elements can fuel contemporary movement, this is worth the trip to the U District.
