Miller Performing Arts – Gen Last – Auditions for Youth Performers

It’s the year 2055. On a bleak and desolate post-apocalyptic wasteland, a group of young people with extraordinary psychic powers are drawn together from different corners of the globe. They are the enigmatic Crystal Children. 

Navigating the world alone, they confront the consequences of our failure to heed the warnings of climate change, hopeful that they can rebuild civilisation from the ashes.

This November, HKYAF’s new flagship production Gen Last takes to the stage at The Box, Freespace. Written and directed by Lindsey McAlister, the original musical tells a story of empowerment and optimism. Knowing that the fate of the planet rests in their hands, the young protagonists arm themselves with a shared determination to coexist harmoniously with nature.

We are now seeking singers, dancers and actors aged 7 to 25 who are keen to be part of our exciting new production. Experience preferred, enthusiasm a must!

The Hong Kong Jockey Club Community Project Grant: stART Up Community Arts Project – Exhibition

The Hong Kong Jockey Club Community Project Grant: stART Up Community Arts Project is an inclusive programme offering accessible arts opportunities for participants of all ages, cultures and abilities. The programme is inspired by the idea that art is a universal language that can bring individuals and communities together.

Between 5 and 17 March, a free exhibition of work produced by mixed-ability participants during the 2023/2024 edition of the programme is on display at the Artificial Grass Area, D·PARK, Tsuen Wan.

The works are a result of community collaborations involving local artists, teenagers, and schools and organisations working with people with disabilities. The nine thematic displays offer audiences a wide variety of fun art forms and experiences. Among them are Beginning with Music, a display of 3D collage images inspired by the lyrics of popular Cantopop songs, Approachable Dragon, a tactile soft sculpture of a friendly dragon that the audience is encouraged to explore with their hands, and the Voices Unleashed Music Programme, original songs performed by a mixed-ability choir. 

The exhibition runs from 5 to 17 March at the Artificial Grass Area, L1, D‧PARK in Tsuen Wan and is open from 10am to 8pm every day. Admission is free. Join us and experience the creativity and passion of differently-abled participants.
