Hong Kong concert organisers make stage design changes as new rules kick in

The Hong Kong Coliseum, where a movable giant screen crashed onto the stage during a concert last Thursday.Organisers of upcoming concerts in Hong Kong are making last-minute changes to their stage designs as some private venue owners have decided to follow the government’s tightened rules on installations at public performance sites in the wake of an accident at a show by Canto-pop boy band Mirror last week.

“This has affected our planning as we will have to change our stage design a bit to comply with the government’s measure. We are still discussing our changes, but that has definitely increased the workload for everyone,” the singer’s representative said. “We did manage to find someone in the end, but that did affect the logistics of our preparation process,” the organiser said.

One of the injured dancers, 27-year-old Mo Lee Kai Yin, suffered a brain haemorrhage and fractured the third and fourth vertebrae in his neck. A medical source said he was still “on tube” and “under sedation” as it took time to stabilise a fractured spine after surgery. A Queen Elizabeth Hospital spokesman said Lee remained in critical condition with stable vital signs.

A third dancer, Zisac Law Tak Chi, was also injured. In an Instagram post on Tuesday night, Law thanked people for taking care of him.
