Kaléidoscope

Hiu Kok Theatre Association

1, 2/6|Saturday, Sunday|20:00     Macao Cultural Centre Small Auditorium     Tickets: MOP 180, 140

Kaléidoscope, different from narrative theatre, presents interconnected life moments on stage through music, lighting, space and performers’ breathing rhythms. With visualised scene changes, “dreamers” wander between the real and virtual worlds. A light and shadow game prompts audiences to reflect on their own experiences while evoking resonance.

A joint production by Hiu Kok Theatre Association and The Funny Old Tree Theatre Ensemble from Macao, Performosa Theatre from Taiwan, ACX Productions and Eutopia Theatre from Malaysia, Kaléidoscope is directed by Shaghayegh Beheshti, a core member of world-renowned Théâtre du Soleil, and collaborated with performers from different parts of Asia. They spent three years on the creation, attempting to put freely flowing fragmental memories into a kaleidoscope, and present the transient moments in life with light, shadow and hope.
