Program
Follow the journey of Ah Bo, an insomniac who wanders through the busy streets during the dead of night with his inner child, searching for his missing sense of sleep. Along the way, he encounters a cast of urban characters—including a soaring aerialist, a rollercoaster operator, and a late-night butcher. Each encounter acts as a modern fable, reflecting the unique frustrations, paradoxes, and poetry of city life. Returning from a successful run at the Avignon Festival OFF in France, this production uses a fresh narrative form, seamlessly blending puppetry and live projection to transport the audience into a vivid, surreal urban dreamscape.
