A movement piece Poor Theatre Series turns FOUR
with Objects of Desire Shape + Sound = ¡®Object¡¯ |
16 - 21 May 2006 |
|
Due to the overwhelming response to 2004¡¯s
Play Play, Kuo Jing Hong once again presents an original piece - Objects
of Desire. |
This theatre-making movement piece is
presented by The Theatre Practice and performed by the 4th cohort of
year 1 students of the Theatre Training & Research Programme (TTRP). |
The performers hail from Mexico and Asia,
and have diverse backgrounds in theatre and the performing arts. Kuo
Jing Hong is Movement Teacher at TTRP. |
Objects of Desire will challenge each
performer to use their bodies and vocals to depict everyday objects, and
explore their hidden depths and desires. |
Poor Theatre Series has broken new ground
with its introduction of the pay-as-you-want scheme ¨C audiences can now
by-pass the hassle of purchasing tickets, and pay whatever amount they
wish after the show! (Seats are limited! Book now to avoid
disappointment!) |
Objects of Desire will make imagination
run wild! |
Observe how the actors communicate with an
audience through movement alone, without the use of any spoken language
or elaborate costumes. |
Objects of Desire is a light-hearted,
original piece, which playfully prompts you to see objects in a
new light! Gain a greater appreciation and awareness of your
microwave, condom, vacuum cleaner, slipper and umbrella as seven
actors depict them. |
Objects of Desire will make you wonder
about the possible emotional roller coaster that your every day
things go through, should they have a living breathing body. |
So join us as we bring to live the
many objects around us and delve into their inner most thoughts.
We guarantee that you will never look at your umbrella the same
way again! |
