Monkey King – A Modern Beijing Opera – Autumn UK Tour 2009

Monkey King – A Modern Beijing Opera. Celebrating the richness and colour of Beijing Opera and re-interpreted for the modern day, Chi2 have created a visually and musically exciting show, blending digital media and music.

The story is based on sixteenth century classic Chinese epic novel, Monkey: Journey To The West, to which Chi2 have composed an original soundtrack, complemented by a filmic interpretation of the storyline.

OneInchPunch has personally experienced Chi2’s Monkey King Show and if you’re able to make it, it is not to be missed!
