This Lunar New Year, silence speaks louder than words! 👐 Acclaimed dancer Tai Lihua is revolutionizing holiday traditions through her work with the China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe, blending performance art with accessibility for CMG's 2026 Spring Festival Gala.
During rehearsals this week, Tai demonstrated how sign language transforms New Year blessings into visual poetry. Her hand movements – described as "a galloping horse made of moonlight" by crew members – showcase the elegance of silent communication.
"Every gesture carries centuries of cultural meaning," Tai explained through an interpreter. "When we sign 'fortune' or 'family reunion,' we're painting with our bodies." 🖌️
The special broadcast aims to make Lunar New Year celebrations more inclusive for deaf communities worldwide. Young viewers can expect to learn basic holiday signs through interactive segments – perfect for sending unique greetings to friends!
