The Red Candle -Mermaids In The East- 2016

[df-subtitle]4th -20th November 2016[/df-subtitle]

Théatre Lapis presents The Red Candle -Mermaids In The East at the Brunel Museum.The way  Théatre Lapis tells the story is new and experimental pushing the boundaries of traditional methods. They take a minimalistic approach for the maximum theatrical effects accompanied by some traditional Japanese music.

They aim to introduce Japanese culture in an authentic way within an intimate space, the Grand Entrance Hall at the Brunel Museum.

Théatre Lapis initial inspiration was the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in 2011. However, the piece is echoing the grief caused by all other man-made and natural disasters that we had to experience in this turbulent times.

[blockquote author=” The Audience Club member”]A beautiful performance in a spectacular venue. Short but sweet, the storyline resonated with past and current events. A combination of dance, music, song and the effective use of masks and fabrics conveyed the story perfectly. [/blockquote]
