About the event
A man who owes his life to science sets out to repay his debt — by finding the angel bone, known to hold the secret of life and which fulfils man's desires. But why does the bone in his arm keep trembling? It opens a door into genetic memory, hurling his whole world back through time: from a modern fossil excavation site to a medieval laboratory and to the ancient world.
−320°F is the latest play from visionary writer-director Hideki Noda OBE — a Faustian descent through myth, memory and other bad ideas. Twenty-five acclaimed Japanese performers in a production of extraordinary physical exuberance dig up a question that lies deep within us: what is life?
Starring Sadawo Abe, Suzu Hirose, Eri Fukatsu, and Hideki Noda himself. Straight from a landmark run at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre.
Performed in Japanese with English subtitles. Running time: 2 hours 20 minutes, no interval. Suitable for ages 6 and over.
Performances: Wednesday–Friday 7:30pm | Saturday–Sunday matinees 2:30pm.
