In May 2010 the Cultural Centre of Macau will open doors to welcome Macau's 21st Arts Festival. The internationally-acclaimed event will cover the entire month of May and will be staged at various locations around Macau. Tickets for the festival could be found via the Macau Kong Seng Ticketing Network starting from March 21st
Macau Arts Festival is an unique multicultural blend of exhibitions, opera, visual arts, theatre, dance and installations and much more. Present this year will be the the Kransy Sisters from Australia, winners of various prestigious international awards including the Herald Angel Award at the Edinburgh Festival 2006 with their Heard It On the Wireless. The Gaia Theatre from Peru will perform a kinetic, non-verbal act in the mime/puppet theatre The Worlds of Fingerman, while Storm (Germany) and Discipulos do Ritmo(Brazil) will reveal the connection between dance and geometry in their famous hip-hop performance Geometronomics.
With more than 70 performances from 20 different countries the festival is a celebration of multicultural diversity- an image widely promoted by Macau's authorities. The program includes acts from USA, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Australia and while also giving opportunity to local works to debut on a international front. Such are the drama teatre Stories of the Rose Alley performed by the Hiu Kok Drama Association and the Outdoor Performing Arts Showcage with artists from various generations and traditions in Macau.
With two other similar festivals- Macau International Music Festival which takes place every October and the April's International Video&Film Festival- Macau is becoming one of the most popular festival cities in Asia, attracting thousands of festival-goers each year. Will Macau be the laid-back multicultural festival capital of Asia? Only time will show.
