  • HUBBARD STREET DANCE CHICAGO and FINAL BOW for YELLOWFACE PRESENT UNBOXED Three Short Works Reimagining the Nutcracker’S Tea Variation, May 10, 17 and 24, 2021
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Nick Harkin Carol Fox and Associates [email protected] HUBBARD STREET DANCE CHICAGO AND FINAL BOW FOR YELLOWFACE PRESENT UNBOXED Three Short Works Reimagining The Nutcracker’s Tea Variation, May 10, 17 and 24, 2021 Chicago, IL — Hubbard Street Dance (HSDC) in partnership with Final Bow for Yellowface presents Unboxed, three works that rewrite the future of a tradition. Unboxed features choreographers Yin Yue, Edwaard Liang, and Peter Chu using their voices and vocabularies to imagine their own versions of the Chinese Tea variation from The Nutcracker. These Asian and Asian-American dance-makers engaged in three-day workshops with Hubbard Street dancers exploring the questions: “What are the traditions we want to protect?” and “What do we want to leave behind?” Unboxed welcomes viewers to tear free from the confines of tradition and invites audiences to glimpse the promise of a future rewritten. HSDC is challenging what is known as canon, in this case, the Chinese Tea variation from The Nutcracker to ask, “Can a dance, only a minute long but fraught with stereotypes, exist within a more inclusive future?” Hubbard Street Dance Associate Artistic Director, Jessica Tong says “the idea for Unboxed was always about challenging conventions and stereotypes. But my main focus initially was really to create a fun way for Hubbard Street to interact with great choreographers while playfully researching this one-minute variation. I couldn't have foreseen how meaningful and timely this project would eventually become, as people of Asian descent in this country are now fighting more than ever for acceptance and visibility.” Founders of Final Bow for Yellowface Phil Chan and Georgina Pazcoguin share more about this partnership, "At a time when big ballet companies routinely revive orientalist ballets from a European perspective, they seldom include choreographers of Asian descent.
