International Arts Festival 2007

I'm glad that I have an opportunity to introduce some Korean play here.
Following photo and article are from www.perthfestival.com.au and it's on from next week. I'm going to watch this and will get homesick for sure. I used to watch quite lots of plays when I was in Korea but for some reasons (mainly the language) I haven't had a chance to see any of them. what a shame...

Hope some of my blog readers (if there is any readers!) go and enjoy something different...

Korea's Yohangza Theatre Company present Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream as its never been seen before. The fairy king and queen, Oberon and Titania, reverse roles, Bottom is a country woman searching for rare 100-year-old ginseng, and Puck splits into twins.

The tangled tale of four lovers is told through a fresh mix of dance, voice, percussion, and performance bursting with mischief and boundless energy. This hilarious, fun-packed Edinburgh Festival hit will delight and captivate.

Enchanting for everyone ... Yohangza's dynamic dance and graceful poise is an eye-opener, revealing unimagined pleasures in the genre The Big Issue

Wonderfully wicked, clever and magical ... The Scotsman

In Korean with English surtitles
