Inspired by the 20th-century Italian architect Aldo Rossi’s work of the same name. A creative crossover between architecture, music and theatre, it illuminates Hong Kong’s unique cityscapes with the bamboo scaffoldings on stage, and the shifting multimedia visuals, music and lighting. Yu Yat-yiu is the Music Director, KJ Wong meets the audience at the piano, and Josie and the Uni Boys rocks the stage. The production won a Silver Award at the 2018 DFA Design for Asia Awards – Event and Stage Design Award and a Sliver A’ Design Award in Performing Arts, Style and Scenery Design Category in 2019.
