De-Ling is a full length contemporary dance based on the artworks of Moreen Austria which is an adaptation of a tragic story in Negros Occidental in the 1930s. It was made more appropriate for public consumption by Nicholas Pichay, and directed by Dwight Rodrigazo.
Xiao Mitchao, choreographer and the lead said, “We (Dance Pull Project) are overwhelmed and happy to come over for Dumaguete is one our dream places to perform because you have the Luce Auditorium which is a very outstanding place to perform in.”
De-Ling is set to stage in the coming months in Ayala Museum, De La Salle- St. Benilde, and Cultural Center of the Philippines.
