About this Event

This journey is no longer about enlightenment, but a search for self amid identity and control. Blending Eastern mythology with contemporary immigrant experience, the play explores cultural tension between East and West and the weight of parental overprotection.

Wukong and Kong incorporate shadow puppetry, marionettes, electronic soundscapes, and live audience interaction.Allowing body movement, audio,visual and installation to form the core language of the work’s narrative and expression, creating a poetic and visually striking experience.
