About this Event
Emotions Embraced
by Yulia Liu
Dance Performance
True wisdom and meaning lie not in being unaffected by emotions, but in finding harmony between emotions and the self.
Content Advisory:
None.
Guai Shou 怪獸
by Vanessa Yuen
Theatre Performance
Take a seat in GuaiShou Teahouse, where tea spills into myth, ceremony, and combat. Under glowing lanterns, swaying between chaos and order, ancient and urgent—an encounter that feels both absurd and deeply human.
Content Advisory:
Audience participation, implied violence, strobe and haze.

About LIVE ACTS FESTIVAL
The culmination of creative research over two semesters, the Live Acts Festival 2026 is a presentation of BFA capstone projects created by SCA Theatre & Performance and Dance Majors with support from students in Production and Design. Over two weeks, 30 artists present solo or group works in a series of double or triple bill programs, across three unique stage configurations – Proscenium, Alley, and in the Round – all presented in the Fei and Milton Wong Experimental Theatre.
