When Tigers Smoked Long Pipes
About the Show
When Tigers Smoked Long Pipes is a magical journey combining elements of narrative style, movement and music – bringing to life Korean folktale figures such as the cunning Tiger, the strong single Mother, the patriarchal God, the hapless young Woodcutter and the brave and devoted Maiden. In exploring and reinterpreting creation myths and love stories with a very contemporary and multicultural edge, the play presents the world as a place where the miraculous coexists with the mundane and the silly with the sublime. Though not a “children’s show,” it’s one the whole family will enjoy!
