Taming the Kung Fu Dragon takes the audience on a journey with two rival martial arts experts at the point of their final battle. It traces the learning, spirituality, dedication and discipline behind what it takes to become a great fighter whilst also exploring their paths towards peace.

Drawing upon the Japanese concept of Bushido, meaning the ‘way of the warrior’ this work will appeal to both dance enthusiasts and a wide range of martial art fans through an interesting synthesis of ancient martial arts tradition and contemporary dance.
