East of the Sun and West of the Moon was first performed at Towson University in Partnership with the MFA Theater program on October 2, 1997
East of the Sun and West of the Moon is the epic story of a young girl who causes the near destruction of her town when she breaks her promise to a frog. To save her home and her village she must undertake a perilous journey to a far away land and unlock the meaning of life.
East of the Sun and West of the Moon combines Bunraku style, live hand puppets and onstage actors who interact in a dynamic form of movement theatre.
Feel free to join the cast and puppets after each show, and participate in the post-show discussion on Friday 12th March.
“This experimental theatre piece is anything but traditional. The combination of movement, acting, music and puppetry contributes to a graceful, harmonious setting.” “All the performers, actors and puppeteers alike, are exceptional.”
