Its performances are billed as avant-garde experiences that blur the lines between art, food, intimacy and rebellion.
In April the boundary-pushing collective from Switzerland heads to Hong Kong as part of its Dance Together Alone Asian tour for two performances on April 11 and 12 at Tomorrow Maybe, the arts space at the Eaton HK hotel in Jordan, Kowloon.
Ahead of these adults-only performances, YBDG will hold a movement workshop at Eaton HK's Music Room on April 8.
The menu will incorporate a lot of sensual and melting, dripping action

'We are about non-sexual intimacy that connects communities of like-minded people from all over the world,' says a member of the group, speaking from the Thai capital, Bangkok, the first stop on YBDG's tour, which includes dates in Japan, Vietnam, China and South Korea.
