How it's used
Proper names of cultural institutions in Hong Kong often retain their full title even in casual conversation to avoid ambiguity. While some might shorten it to 舞團 when the context is already established, using the full name is standard when discussing specific upcoming shows or ticketing. It functions as a singular entity and is treated as a formal noun phrase within a sentence.
