According to the critic of the Financial Times, Chinese traditions and contemporary endeavours complement each other in his productions in the manner of yin and yang, creating a perfectly harmonious whole. The Moon Opera is a dance drama in which extreme emotions, jealousy, love, talent and rejection fuse to create high-voltage, fiery theatrical moments.
