“One of my favorite shows in the short times I stayed in Edinburgh,
which recalls my memories in the past as a child, great indeed!”

Created by Macao-based Taiwanese artist Hope Chiang, a graduate of the MFA Theatre Directing program of Middlesex University in the UK, this miniature object and movement site-specific theatre has toured bookshops throughout Asia and Europe telling the story of a dreaming poet and the exploration of possibilities and the imagination. In this work suitable for all ages, a poet dreams in writes in a corner of a bookshop, his soul flying beyond the confines imposed by the tiny squares of Chinese manuscript paper. This stunning work describes the mind map of a poet in the midst of his work and on a journey through discovery and creation – a journey the audience is invited to join him on. The latest work presents in Edinburgh is directed by Korean artist Park So Yoon.
