Murakami by the Sea: An original work inspired by the work of Haruki Murakami
Department of Theatre & Drama
Murakami by the Sea is a full-length devised work inspired by novels and short stories by Haruki Murakami (the award-winning Japanese writer of Kafka on the Shore, among many others). Placed within a constantly evolving environment of cardboard and broken tires, the production bridges the gap between the genres of visual art, music, theatre, and movement. The created world and soundscape of tangible memories, innocent gestures, poignant observations, and emotional interactions wash over the audience and take them to the serenity at the bottom of the ocean.
Devised & Directed by Tzveta Kassabova with the cast, shaped by the dramaturg Teresa Kovacs.
