FRACTALS​
12 April, Saturday, 8PM
Goodman Arts Centre Black Box

Patterns shape our world in ways we barely notice—some simple, others infinitely complex. They emerge in nature, in our rhythms, in unseen forces shaping our choices. Coincidence, or something more?
Where logic and intuition blur, the Sigma Youth Programme dancers present Fractals—a culmination of shared experiences, learning, and artistic growth.
Dancers:
Coco Yau, Ignatius Sim, Goh Kai Yu, Janelle Tan, John Ng, Keith Kwan, Leslie Quek, Tricia Corpuz, Vivian Chay, Violet Huang.
Choreographers of Fractals:
Christina Chan & Chua Chiok Woon
Faculty for [batch 2024-25]:
Hong Guofeng, Christina Chan, Germaine Cheng, Ivan Koh & Ng Zu You

Programme Details
The programme will be led by Sigma's artistic director Hong Guofeng, resident choreographer Christina Chan, and Sigma artist Germaine Cheng as well as guest artists through classes, workshops and rehearsals, which will eventually culminate in a performance that will be showcased at the end of the programme.​
