Choreographer Takehiro Ueyama created "Heroes" to honor the dedication and preservation of citizens who played a crucial role in Japan’s recovery after World War II. Katarzyna Skarpetowska choreographed "Snow Playground", an abstract work inspired by a peaceful image of swirling snow across a children’s playground.
