The Dancebox series is an ongoing project that has been run in partnership by MyDance Alliance and The Actors Studio since 2001. This informal performance platform presents short works of Malaysian dance in a variety of genres, and by both established and emerging choreographers. This December 2022 edition of Dancebox promises eight short dance works that range from the humorous to the dramatic, promising physical feats to romantic moods. We find out more from the show's producer, Bilqis Hijjas, and one of the featured choreographers, Mohd Nuriqram Bin Azhar.
