"Moon Water is a dream of a show, one of the most ravishing things I\'ve seen in a theatre." The Daily Telegraph
Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan is renowned for delivering spellbinding, spiritual performances. Here the company performs a piece integrating meditation, tai-chi, martial arts and Chinese opera movement with modern dance and ballet.

Set to Bach's Suites for Solo Cello (performed live) mirrors are used during the show to reflect the dancers and the patterns of the set. Water then flows onto the stage until the floor itself becomes a huge mirror reflecting dancing bodies.
