I’m fine... I think.
A smile appears. A body follows—or tries to.

Almost Fine is a 30-minute solo contemporary dance created and performed by Taiwanese dancer A-Yao (Peishao Huang).

If you like physical theatre or contemporary dance, come experience this intimate, close-up performance.

Small actions—walking, sitting, scrolling, breathing—begin to slip. The work reveals the cracks beneath how we try to “be normal.” It shifts between control and impulse, clarity and chaos.

Presented at the 2024 Taiwan Jumping Islands Dance Festival:
“Stunning movements! Even his fingertips radiate sensuality and tension — raw and honest.”- from Dance Critic
“I couldn’t look away. Every second was utterly gripping.” - from audience

At its core, Almost Fine explores identity—gender, culture, and how we are shaped by forces we rarely question.

It is not about breaking.
It is not about control.
It is about living in the space of “almost”—
the fragile, honest moment before we find our footing again.
