Wukong and Kong - Edinburgh Festival Fringe

"My parents are MONSTER!" When love becomes control, can we ever truly strip away the expectations imposed on us? Wukong is an international student who studies abroad, and his parents have some expectations of him.
Fresh from Avignon Off and selected for Chinese Culture Week at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Wukong and Kong present a grand, universally resonant Oriental fable, an inventive Metamorphosis of Asians.
Reimagining Journey to the West, the show turns the legendary Golden Hoop into a metaphor for overwhelming parental expectations. This high-energy comedy cleverly fuses traditional Chinese shadow puppetry, digital projections, electronic soundscapes, and immersive live interaction. In a dazzling collision of myth and modern reality, the Wukong family invites you into a hilarious, deeply moving adventure that navigates love, boundaries, and growing together amid laughter.
