The 10th Associations Glow in the Rhyme of Autumn successfully concluded at CUC Auditorium on Friday, Nov 9. 

Hosted by the Union of Student Association and guided by Chinese Communist Youth League Committee of CUC, this evening party presented twenty-four magnificent and professional performances to the audience. Chen Wenshen, chairman of the University Council, Jiang Xufan, Vice Chairman of the University Council, together with leaders of all faculties and departments, chairmen of Communist Youth League from Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Zhejiang, Sichuan and other seven provinces and municipalities attended the ceremony.

The party was themed “Guide of Travelling beyond Time”, with a stage converted into a cabin of spacecraft. All the 24 performances were linked by broadcasting of two flight attendants (the host and hostess of evening party), VCR of the captain (an actor in this evening party) and the simulation animation of outer space.

The theme of this party was inspired by 2001: A Space Odyssey, a sci-fi movie released in 1968. “We wanted to bring audiences an immersive experience by using the proscenium stage in CUC Auditorium, which would give audiences a better feeling of traveling in space,” said Zhuang Canjie, the chief director of the 10th Associations Glow in the Rhyme of Autumn.

Another feature of the show was the use of full color laser, which was much more stereoscopic than ordinary light.
