"When I learned yingge dance with senior performers from the Lingnan region, I admired their passion and respect for the old dance form, each step symbolizing an emotion."

Liang Qiqi, a native of Guangdong, plays the role of the mother in the dance drama.

"I wanted to honor my heritage while also finding a way to bring something new to the table. Yingge dance is such a powerful, dynamic art form, but it can sometimes feel like it's locked in the past. I am very excited that the creative team has reimagined it, making it relevant for younger generations while still respecting its origins," she says.

According to Wang Sisi, co-director of the dance drama, Odes to Heroes is the last production of the trilogy produced by the Guangzhou theater company, highlighting traditional culture of the Lingnan region.
