Legs On The Wall and AsiaNow present The Tale of Samulnori

20 February 4:30pm - 4:45pm Brisbane Powerhouse - The Hub Physical Theatre, Circus Pitch Family

Faced with the end of the world, four children set out to save it, using nothing but their wits, creativity and daring physical skill

The Tale of Samulnori is a joyous celebration of the energy that is generated when two cultures work together to create something new. Through passionate music, powerful images and virtuosic acrobatics, it embraces a spirit of adventure and inventiveness and offers audiences a new way to experience stories in the theatre.

The Tale of Samulnori is inspired by a fable about four siblings who save the world from an Ash Monster that is blocking out the warmth and energy of the Sun. This simple story of creativity and ingenuity is told through a powerful combination of traditional and contemporary acrobatics, striking video imagery and joyous music.
