Go with an open mind to the works of these two choreographers

WHEN it comes to dance, the written word can only say so much about it.

Choreographers Christina Chan and Kinsun Chan would, in fact, prefer that their audiences show up to watch their works with no assumptions, with a clean slate, as it were.

Christina's work at the upcoming annual Passages Contemporary Season by the Singapore Dance Theatre is a 15-minute male duet titled Shift or Go, which uses a table as a prop, like she did in a workshop in 2011 and in an extended piece at last year's event.
