Ellen Stewart Theatre | 66 East 4th Street
U.S. Premiere by Korean Company Mokwha
Adapted and Directed by Tae-Suk Oh
Traditional Korean aesthetics, language, and expressions inspire Director Oh’s unique theatre methodology: his work is rooted in Korea’s cultural past and present. The Tempest will introduce various aspects of Korean history, tradition, and culture to La MaMa’s stage.
“What instantly strikes one is the lightness and wit which Oh Tae-Suk handles the familiar story… an eloquent testament to the fusion of the best of east and west.”
– Michael Billington, The Guardian (UK)
We hope to see you at La MaMa soon!
The Wong Kids In The Secret Of The Space Chupacabra Go!
By Ma-Yi Theater Company
Ellen Stewart Theatre
January 28 – February 16, 2014
7pm | Thursdays – Fridays – Saturdays
1:30pm | Saturdays – Sundays
Violet and Bruce Wong just don’t fit in with the other Earth kids. Sure, they have super powers, they’re just not very good ones. But when an evil beast called the Space Chupacabra appears, intent on universal destruction, The Wong Kids must travel to outer space in order to stop it… if they can only stop bickering. Using a mix of action-driven storytelling, puppetry, and visual magic, THE WONG KIDS transports its audience into the far reaches of the galaxy.
