編者話 Editor's Note
今期《舞蹈手札》標誌著我們踏入創刊以來的第二十個年頭，有賴各位讀者和藝評人的支持，《舞》在過去二十年愈趨成熟。由創刊至今，《舞》一直專注出版舞蹈評論、資訊及各類舞蹈相關文章。近年更擴展至本地及國際藝術工作者的獨家訪問、探討本地及海外舞蹈潮流的專欄、各類舞蹈相關議題的專題文章、舞台背後的人物故事，同時亦新增了網上版本和短片內容。
With this issue, we begin our 20th continuous year of publishing dance journal/ hk. Thanks to our readers, the dedication of our writers, and the support of the dance community, we have been able to grow and mature over the last two decades. From its inception, the journal has focused on dance reviews, dance news, and diverse articles relating to dance. Most recently, content has been expanded to include interviews with local and international dance leaders and practitioners, columns exploring dance trends here and abroad, special feature articles looking at a gamut of issues important to dance, and stories of interest to the dance community. An online platform has also been launched with additional features including video content.
作為本地唯一專注舞蹈的刊物，我們希望鼓勵觀眾與創作人對話，推廣賞舞文化，培養舞蹈觀眾，為香港的舞蹈界作紀錄。
As the only periodical exclusively devoted to dance in Hong Kong, among other aims, dance journal/hk seeks to encourage a dialogue between audiences and artists, promote dance appreciation, develop dance audiences, and record the history of dance in Hong Kong.
為慶祝《舞》的二十週年，我們將會在印刷本及網上平台推出一系列的文章和短片專題，邀請二十年來參與香港舞蹈發展的藝術家、編輯、評論人、文字人，來談談二十年來的香港舞蹈故事和他們的願景。密切留意！
To celebrate its 20th Anniversary, the journal will launch a series of special articles and videos. In upcoming issues, both in-print and on-line, we will invite artists, editors, critics, writers, and others who have contributed to Hong Kong dance development over the past 20 years, to share their stories with us. It will not only be a look at the past, but an invitation to imagine and share plans and visions for the future. Stay tuned!
在今年出版第一期的同時，我們正逐步把過去二十年超過一百期的《舞》上載至網上供各讀者免費閱讀，可參閱www.dancejournalhk.com（見「以往出版」），相信我們過住的刊物，能讓希望了解香港舞蹈歷史的讀者提供多一塊拼圖。我們亦希望為各位讀者提供一些導讀及文章推介，從過去的文章觀照今天的香港舞蹈。
To get started, the journal will also upload over a hundred more issues from the early years of publication to the online platform www.dancejournalhk.com under the heading “Past Issues”. These files can be accessed freely. And to give contemporary readers a foothold into our history, the journal will also provide reading guides and recommendations from our writers.
您的支持是我們繼續出版《舞》的源動力，讓我們為繼續推廣香港舞蹈！謝謝！
Your continued support energizes us to make dance journal/hk the best it can be and enables us to keep spreading the good word on Hong Kong dance. Thank you!
