Touring Canada in Spring of 2017
A PANGAEA ARTS production, in collaboration with ArtStage SAN from South Korea.
상자 SANGJA (Boxes)
SANGJA takes the audience on a remarkable journey from Korea to Canada, and all of the imaginative places in-between. Pangaea Arts collaborates with Korean puppetry/physical theatre troupe ArtStage SAN, to create a theatrical piece that reaches across borders. We follow a boy as he strives to find his unique place in the world and come to terms with the incredible loss of his birth family, language and culture, while navigating the tension that occurs when families (and people) don’t fit within our cultural expectations.

Come deep into the forest as a family of trolls bring Scandinavian folklore to life. It's Grandpa Trollson's 200th birthday party, but he refuses to come out of his tree stump to celebrate! When audience participants join the action onstage, Grandpa cannot resist the power of storytelling. Join us for three truly interactive tales based on stories by Hans Christian Andersen, featuring live music, incredible masks, physical comedy, improvisation, and good old-fashioned troll trouble!
