SONGS OF THE WANDERERS Touring

The performance, created by Lin Hwai-min for Cloud Gate Theatre of Taiwan is inspired by Buddhist meditation and the quest for enlightenment. The pilgrimage, choreographed in slow motion and notable for its stamina, serenity and pictorial beauty, is accompanied by prayer, recorded soulful Georgian folk songs and religious rites. What makes this particular spiritual journey so memorable is the three and a half tonnes of shimmering golden grains of rice which rain down on the dancers.
