Cosmic Tree @ SIDC

Cosmic Tree is a profound ritual theatre experience, a stunning fusion of primal philosophy and cutting-edge technology.
Inspired by the Basha Miao tradition of planting a tree for every newborn, the piece explores the sacred bond between humanity and nature.
The tree becomes a central axis—its roots in the earth, trunk in humanity, and canopy in heaven—forming a cosmic channel connecting all realms.
Helmed by acclaimed choreographer Da Zhu, with legendary artist Yang Liping as Artistic Advisor and an original score by Oscar-winning composer Tan Dun, Cosmic Tree promises an unforgettable visual and auditory journey.
It weaves acrobatics, modern dance, and ancient myth into a powerful ode to the cycle of life, portraying humanity as the tree and the tree as humanity.
