From February to June 2020, Freespace presents a new edition of its research and experimentation programme Choreographer and Composer Lab – a collaborative professional platform that brings artists together to generate creative ideas, explore new approaches to composition in music and dance, and develop partnerships.

To share the results of the four-month exchange with a wider audience, this year’s programme also includes a free public works-in-development showcase and sharing session with the participating artists, presenting work produced during the exchange. 

This year’s artists include two independent contemporary dance choreographers – Alice Ma Sze-nga and Joseph Lee – and three independent composers with experience across a range of disciplines and genres – Fiona Lee, Karen Yu and Lawrence Lau Hiu-kong – who are working in two groups: Alice Ma Sze-nga with Fiona Lee, and Joseph Lee with Karen Yu and Lawrence Lau Hiu-kong.
