Plays Seen!

As it was required for my IB Theatre class, I was excited to go watch my first two theatrical shows in Korea. Sure, I have seen some in America, but I was excited to see what Korea has to offer....

• King Lear by: Suzuki
• Costume - the costume was very ornately designed, it was very big and colorful
• Actors - the actors were very stiff; lots of control over their actions and talking; spoke solely from the diaphragm; they mixed their languages between Korean and Japanese
• Set - there wasn't a huge set; there was not a variety of sets; the actors acted out the scenes and props
• Technology - there wasn't a variety of spotlights; the lighting was very simple with only one solid color at a time
• Hi-Seoul Festival
• Actors - the actors in the plays were all different, but to focus on the first one with the french dancers... the actors did not have a set scene; they were running in an organized chaotic motion
