<p>It’s August, and it’s time for a break. So pack Centre Stage, our annual arts special, in your backpack and lose yourself in the sensuous world of modern dance before returning to the trade war and other worries.</p>
<p>This year, Alison M. Friedman, performing arts impresario and China modern dance expert, takes us backstage to meet a generation of dance pioneers who are moulding the human form into stretches of both the limbs and the imagination. Founder of cross-cultural enterprise Ping Pong Productions, after 15 years immersed in China’s modern dance world Alison is now Artistic Director of Hong Kong’s West Kowloon Cultural District, one of the largest cultural developments of its kind.</p>
<p><em>centre stage</em> is our fourth annual culture special, following <a href="http://policycn.com/16-02-12-choice-cuts-chinese-popular-music/"><em>best dressed</em></a> on fashion, <a href="http://policycn.com/14-12-22-hip-flicks-for-sinophiles/"><em>hip flicks</em></a> on film, and <a href="http://policycn.com/16-02-12-choice-cuts-chinese-popular-music/"><em>choice cuts</em></a> on music.</p>
