The first 3D entertainment programme combing various art forms such as dance, theatre and circus entertainment will take place in Hanoi in September.

Famous names in the field such as director Pham Hoang Nam, music director Quoc Trung, choreographer Tran Ly Ly, designer Nguyen Cong Tri and circus director Tong Toan Thang are expected to participate in the programme, titled “Ionah”.

Ionah tells the story of a girl who falls into a surrealist world created by herself.

There she meets strange people and struggles with a range of emotions. Eventually, she finds love and returns to the real world.

Director Pham Hoang Nam said the name Ionah came from Hanoi spelled backwards, created by the art team to illustrate their affection for the capital.

Scores of pictures capturing Hanoi with specific traits such as Long Bien Bridge, railway stations, pavement shops, ceramic roads, the Old Quarter as well as the daily lives of Hanoians will be on display at the programme.

Producer Ha Nguyen Huong said Ionah is a long-nurtured project which hopes to bring new experience to audiences.

The programme will be staged at the Star Galaxy Theatre & Convention Centre at No. 87 Lang Ha Street on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the August Revolution (August 19) and National Day (September 2).
