Shakespeare with a Korean Twist

( 2008-06-23 )

Korea's famous Sadari Movement Laboratory brings a dynamic piece of theatrical drama to Beijing with their stripped-down interpretation of Georg Buchner's Woyzeck at the Chaoyang Nine Theaters from July 9 to 11.

The play is based on the true story of a poor German soldier, who was driven to madness by inhuman military murders and discipline.

Founded in 1999, Sadari is one of Korea's best-known young theater companies. The production has been invited to tour all over the world and was a sold-out success at the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where it won the Herald Angel and Total Theatre Award.

Korean Week will wrap up with Theater Moollee's Lady Macbeth at the Oriental Avant-garde Theater from July 11 to 13. This experimental Lady Macbeth is a thorough rewrite of Shakespeare's Macbeth.

Theater Moollee, founded by director and playwright Tae-Sook Han in 1997, is an experimental theater group. It is known within the international theatre community for its controversial works.
