Long Yun will present the U.S. Premiere of its new work 11 Warriors, a performance in five chapters combining traditional elements of kung fu, folding fans, flag and sword performances with modern dance and drama to create a completely new art form.

Long Yun will perform 11 Warriors a second time on Saturday, February 13 at 7:30pm at Logan Center for the Arts.
