Performance + Talkback: Hong Kong Exile | HEAVEN FM

Join us for the world premiere of Hong Kong Exile’s performance HEAVEN FM (2025).

Five artists journey towards the edge of a universe that is teeming with spirit and sound. Equipped with low-tech gear, they attempt connection—tuning in and out of otherworldly stories. The absurd is juxtaposed with the sublime; the comedic revealed within the sacred. Powered by joy, grief and battery-operated magic, HEAVEN FM dances with the unseen and the ever-shifting gravity of loss.

HEAVEN FM is born from Co-Artistic Director Natalie Tin Yin Gan’s reflections on Chinese ancestral ritual in the modern, digitized era. Weaving together dance, theatre and multimedia performance, this collectively devised work is informed by Hong Kong Exile’s thirteen years of exploring technological interactivity in performance.

Tickets: Gallery Members: $30 | General: $39

Performance Run time: 60 minutes. No intermission.
