About This Programme

Co-commissioned by the Hong Kong Arts Festival and Zuni Icosahedron
A Zuni Icosahedron Production

Where does kun opera originate?
How can art be political?
How does an intellectual become a theatre activist?
What kind of transformation has theatre gone through in the past 600 years?
How do we view ourselves as spectators?

Following The Outcast General and the award-winning Tears of Barren Hill (2008), Danny Yung continues his contemporary operatic theatre experiment with kun opera classic Flee by Night, using this famous legend about outlaws of the society to question the notion of "political correctness" in the arts.
