The Nine-colored Deer
Dance drama The Nine-colored Deer is produced and performed by young Chinese dancer Zhang Yashu and created by a team of excellent young Chinese dancers. With their elegant body language, they lead the audience into the world of Dunhuang on the Silk Road, telling the legend of the nine-colored deer.
This work derives from No 257 Dunhuang Grotto frescoes The Figure of Nine-colored Deer, which is regarded as one of extant and the most complete Dunhuang frescoes. In the 1980s, The Figure of Nine-colored Deer was shot in the cartoon The Nine-colored Deer and became a household classic story.
