Liu Xiaoyi, in his director’s message for Einstein in the Carpark, poses to the late renowned theoretical physicist Albert Einstein a litany of 33 questions, among them such pithy existential ones as: “What do you think is the most important question of all?” “How do I find simplicity in confusion?” “Why do so many people know you, but so few people understand you?” This thought … Continue reading Huayi 2018: Einstein In The Carpark (爱因与斯坦) by Emergency Stairs (Review)

Review: The Father by Pangdemonium!

Same same but different – Pangdemonium’s The Father is a terrifying take on dementia as seen through one man’s eyes.  Florian Zeller’s The Father is a difficult play to watch. Not necessarily because it’s complicated (although it’ll certain leave you confused and terrified by the end), but because it’s a play that deals with the inevitable – growing old, and the very real possibility of encountering … Continue reading Review: The Father by Pangdemonium!

Huayi 2018: Cut Kafka! (咔嚓卡夫卡!) by Nine Years Theatre and T.H.E. Dance Company (Review)

Nine Years Theatre and T.H.E. Dance Company take audiences on a nightmarish journey that explores the chaos within our minds. When Nine Years Theatre and T.H.E. Dance Company come together, it’s almost certain that something incredibly out of this world will be born from the collaboration. And when you add a heavy dose of surrealism, you’d probably get something along the lines of Cut Kafka. … Continue reading Huayi 2018: Cut Kafka! (咔嚓卡夫卡!) by Nine Years Theatre and T.H.E.
