Young talents from the mainland and Hong Kong gather with new works in Beijing for the latest edition of Spring Equinox. Chen Nan reports.

Dance festival Spring Equinox, which aims to showcase young Chinese choreographers, will be held in Beijing from March 18 to April 2.

At the annual event this year, 11 original contemporary dance works by more than 10 young Chinese will be staged every weekend. The program that is hosted by Beijing Dance/LDTX began in 2006 after the dance troupe, among the country's first such independent groups, was founded by Willy Tsao. The troupe also tours globally.
