Surreal tales inspired by a legend

ZUNI Icosahedron's latest production presents six versions of one play. Four directors team up in pairs to come up with each evening's production.

The Legend refers to the life (and writings) of the late Chinese novelist Chang Ai-ling, well known for her romantic novels.

However, this show only takes Chang as a launch point.

The four directors each respond to her work by spinning varied tales, linking diverse themes such as teenage suicide, cultural criticism, the Hong Kong election, local censorship laws and homo-eroticism.

All Zuni's actors have seemingly mastered the fine art of holding a pose for an extended length of time.

Here, two knife-wielding actors stood relatively motionless throughout the first section of the play.
