InnerGlowTai Kwun Centre for Heritage and Art 18:30
Tai Kwun’s yearly lights and projection display is back again, and this year sees the Parade Ground and historic Barrack Block façade as the backdrop for a dive into funky disco. Design and technology studio The Collective has been brought in to create Discotheque Dreams, a production which recalls the revolutionary arrival of disco in Asia. Watch a neon dreamscape unfold across the walls, displaying culturally relevant crafts from both East and West such as lion dance and martial arts films, to Hollywood classics from the 70s – a reflection of Hong Kong’s own mixed identity.
For the first time in the five years since InnerGlow has been held, this edition uses technology that allows for real-time audience interaction, inviting visitors to step into the show themselves alongside the projections and live performances. We can already just see everyone boogie-ing in the main courtyard, surrounded by multi-coloured swirling lights and the pulsing rhythm.
