Ruo’s 80-minute oratorio is scored for a string quartet, 16 singers plus a narrator and has been transformed into a dance work, featuring 12 Oakland Ballet Company members and created by 7 Asian American Pacific Islander choreographers.
Other creatives contributing to this production are costume designers Alysia Chang and Kaori Higashiyama a.k.a Hyangjik Skasik, and lighting designer Courtney Carson.
