The dance theatre work Love Letters depicts a precarious relationship spanning several decades, based on five letters written about the familial ties between generations. They touch on self pursuit, romance, introspections and life cycles. A multi-media production, the dance is woven through with the romantic music of Chopin, Ravel, Mahler and Gershwin.

Director Pun Siu-fai brings together a team of outstanding choreographers from across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, who join forces with the Guangdong Modern Dance Company, the Dancer Studio Macao and a splendid array of cross-disciplinary artists, collaborating to deliver a performance that will inspire you from deep within!
