Production photographs – Typhoon Live
Production photographs of Typhoon Live: Getting Married and Dogs (2007). Photographer unknown.
Typhoon is Yellow Earth’s international East Asian playreading festival, and Typhoon Live tour brings this double-bill to UK audiences for the first time, performed in English.
Getting Married, written by Yi Kang-Baek (South Korea) directed by Phillipe Cherbonnier.
A young swindler is looking for love. He has borrowed a big house for the weekend, a suit for the day and he might ask you for a cigarette. A stern and silent butler lurks in the shadows. When a charming, innocent woman enters, will they find love before the grim butler calls time? A light-hearted, surreal fable from South Korea’s Daesan Award winner.
Dogs, written by Elangovan (Singapore) directed by Kwong Loke.
A savagely funny play about the end of love, when a woman pampers her dog rather than her loser of a husband. Racing through the humid night air, this rollercoaster of resentment, disappointment and hatred is full of foul-mouthed humour, with a dark and disturbing ending. From Singapore’s International Award and South-East Asian Writer’s Award winner.
