Description
The production draws inspiration from ancient Chinese mythology and Taoist philosophical tales to explore the relationships between different cultures. Six performers from diverse cultural backgrounds convey a universal language through avant-garde physical theatre and visual arts, aiming to blur cultural boundaries, explore the potential of breaking cultural barriers and achieving cultural equality, thus prompting audiences to deeply reflect on war and humanity.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Immediate, slightly chaotic, thoughts on this show which we just saw as our first show this year:
Such a great, great start to our fringe. A beautiful, complete, witty show with a clear message of the strife and later love and connection that comes about through cultural exchange.
Great video work and performances. I hope this show goes on to do well. The theatre was a perfect but I think the fairly remote location may well have resulted in the lower than deserved numbers in the audience.
Still I hope at least someone that saw it can give this show a chance somewhere, it will certainly have pleased everyone that saw it tonight.

Captivating show and such a splendid cast! Chose them specifically due to the nature of experimental theatre. Strong actors and well understood storyline! Well done! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
