In addition to She's Lonely Planets, the other six new dance pieces cover a wide range of topics.

Mountains and Rivers by Li Yang presents the country's natural scenery through the dancers' movements.

Beethoven is choreographed by Zheng Yu, who is a fan of the German composer and was inspired by the composer's Piano Concerto No 4 in G major, Op 58.

The Butterfly Dream by Liu Xuechen combines videos and dance movements to retell the Chinese folk tale Zhuangzhou Dreams of Butterfly.

Missing You Forever by Li Jun is dedicated to the 100th year of the founding of the Communist Party of China. It tells of the romance between Gao Junyu (1896-1925), a martyr who devoted his life to the CPC, and his lover, Shi Pingmei (1902-1928), a Chinese writer.

Before the Dawn by Peng Jie portrays the difficulties Chinese people faced before the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949 and their fighting spirit to achieve victory.

Shades and Marks by Wang Le explores the relationship between time and people by using lighting effects while the dancers move.
