DETAILS
The second in the series of dance works by Moriyama Kaiji, to be enjoyed by adults and children alike. Ninja was performed in 2019 in the Pit of NNTT, and was highly acclaimed at many theatres throughout Japan. This time, we present the new 2022 version which was scaled up for performances in Playhouse.
These delightfully characteristic ninja sneak into a castle, and transform into lizards, toads, venomous snakes, slugs and more in the mountains and forest. Origami-inspired throwing stars, a battle in a mountaintop fire, torrential rain, water strider insects on the water's surface, and the moon. Immerse yourself in the world of Moriyama Kaiji--with a perfect blend of music, set and costume design, lighting design, projection design and dance--and feel the depth of Japanese culture.
