Sat 04 July @ 2pm, BUBBLE - Langton Green

 

When a twisted artist burns his murdered bride into a porcelain masterpiece, her silenced spirit demands justice. This visually stunning dark fairytale merges Grimm stories with the breathtaking aesthetics of traditional Chinese opera. Stripped of conventional gore, the violence is stylized through mesmerizing physical theatre, traditional Chinese percussion, and spectacular face changing and fire breathing illusions. As a comedic thief breaks into the workshop, a satirical pact is made between the living and the dead. Experience a cross cultural theatrical spectacle of greed, objectification and supernatural revenge, culminating in a dramatic showdown at a hypocritical high society funeral.
