《爵士「不」取消》是一個配合葵青劇院特定環境而策劃的網上音樂節目，旨在探索即興音樂創作，把意想不到的元素融入其中，以不同的表達形式（包括冥想、沖泡咖啡等）結合不同藝種，在劇院各處空間（包括化妝間、卸貨區、大堂等）演出，擴展舞台演出的可能性。一系列4集精采演出將於9至10月陸續出場。
第四集【 thisisthewaytheworldends＋邱立信：環境爵士】
葉志聰並不只是一名爵士樂手（至少不是傳統意義上的爵士樂手），他對電子合成器的聲音和質感深深着迷，並熱衷於探索這種音樂氛圍。在這項目中，他與同為音樂人的徐正威、江逸天，以及特別嘉賓邱立信一起把劇院的化妝間改造成表演空間，探索獨特的聲音和氛圍。

Synopsis: Jazz Un-cancelled is an online site-specific project held at the Kwai Tsing Theatre. The project aims to explore music improvisation with surprise elements, integrating different forms of expression (such as meditation, coffee-making etc.) with different genres played out in various spaces of the Theatre (such as dressing room, loading bay, foyer etc.) to expand the possibilities of staging. A series of 4 videos has been produced for streaming on online platforms from Sep to Oct.
Fourth Episode 【thisisthewaytheworldends＋Nelson Hiu: Jazz & Ambience】
Mike Yip is not just a jazz musician – at least not in the traditional sense. He is deeply fascinated by the sounds and textures of modular synthesizer and is keen to explore the ambience that it brings. In this new project with fellow musicians Vic Tsui, Olivier Cong and special guest Nelson Hiu, he and the band have transformed the Theatre’s dressing room into a performance space filled with unique sounds and ambience.
