Asian Superstar Ms. Sammi Cheng revealed the new theme tune to the world’s newest and most spectacular extravaganza ‘The House of Dancing Water’ at a show preview held at the ‘Dancing Water Theater’ today. ‘The House of Dancing Water’, a HKD 2 billion world class production which is set to open its door to the public on September 17, 2010, is envisioned by Mr. Lawrence Ho, Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Melco Crown Entertainment Limited and destined to be the greatest ‘must see’ show in Asia.

The theme song, entitled ‘Water of Love’, is the exciting new signature theme to the highly anticipated show personally created and directed by Mr. Franco Dragone, one of the world’s greatest show makers whose unique theatrical creations have been experienced by over 65 million people. This romantic love song perfectly encapsulates the spirit of ‘The House of Dancing Water’ which tells the story of an epic and spectacular journey of love-lost and found, in a mystical and thrilling journey of adventure that transcends both time and space.

Cairano 7 X

Cairano, the village of my birth, is a magical place, full of History and the poetry of its landscapes and so I wanted to help it become better known from the outside.

Last year, in close cooperation with the local authorities and thanks especially to the commitment of its inhabitants, hosts, actors and privileged spectators all at the same time, I was able to set up the Festival Cairano 7 X, a really diverse cultural event through which, in meetings and exchanges, each individual can express the spirit of the village and its region.

This year, for the second time, from 20th to 27th June, photographers, architects, cooks, film directors, writers, musicians, all well-known in their field, were able to discover the village through its shortcuts and backstreets. They gave conferences, concerts, even cooking workshops, all in a climate of welcome and openness facilitating interaction between the inhabitants and their visitors.

Would you too like to discover the scent of summer on the hills of Campania, to learn about “la paesologia”, to participate in these encounters?
Then a trip is called for.

Welcome to Cairano.

My personal favorites

Sophie Hunger

Here is an artist that I found somewhere online, a few weeks ago and that I wanted to share with you: Sophie Hunger

It’s always such a pleasure to find out a new artist.

We take some of them with us on our journey, others are just passing by.


And sometime, a voice takes you off guard and push you to shiver.

Sophie Hunger and her cover of “Le vent nous portera” by Noir Désir is one of those.


Alive, inspiring and soulful.

Check her out!

Press conference at the Shanghai Expo 2010.

This Thursday afternoon, 24 June, the Belgian pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo is hosting an event put on by the Belgian Tourism Office (OPT) and specially dedicated to the Chinese press and their international hosts.


As part of the promotion of major events due to take place in our country, which themselves are highly sought-after attractions amongst business travellers (with the Chinese leading the way), the organisers have chosen to highlight on this special day two major events that have Franco Dragone Entertainment Group as a privileged partner: Mons 2015 and Waterloo 2015.

This press conference is also the chance to promote Liege’s bid to become the host city for the 2017 Word Expo, and remind attendees of the coming launch, in Macau, of Franco’s new permanent water-based show, The House of Dancing Water, the Grand Opening of which is scheduled for 16 September of this year in the extraordinary entertainment resort “City of Dreams”, which is owned by the Chinese group Melco and was designed by the famous architectural firm Pei.
