22nd Ishara International Puppet Theatre Festival. Doong Doong Alert (Korea/ Non Verbal, Musical/ 50 mins) Dir. Hwang Seokyong. Performed by Culture Art Bakery FFWANG. Children often struggle to name or understand their anxious feelings & this colourful interactive show addresses that. Eoduksini is a legendary shadowy monster from Korean folklore & he’s reinterpreted from a modern perspective through objects & shadow puppetry. Our little hero Jiho lives with his grandfather. One day he observes strange floating beings called Doong Doong everywhere & sets out on an adventure to discover their true purpose. Blending traditional Korean storytelling with psychology - audiences learn how to confront & deal with anxiety in a calm & imaginative way. Ticketed show.
