【About the show】
A scion of a wealthy family and a street orphan girl, through an accidental encounter, traverse time and space, lost in different eras and fantastical realms, experiencing the chaotic world of imbalance between humanity and nature.
Internationally renowned director David Glass and the Rolling Puppet Alternative Theatre, following their physical theatre production "Trakovsky's Last Days of Europe" in 2018, have once again joined forces for the global performance project "Galapagos" in Macau, aimed at raising awareness of climate change. They lead a troupe of theatre practitioners out of the rehearsal studio to various campuses, collaborating with young people to create and perform. Blending fables, mythology, and the wild imaginations of youth, they guide the audience through a journey across time and space, listening to young people's messages about the fate of humanity. The immersive performance transforms an old village house in Coloane into a symbiotic time-space ark, inviting you to explore humanity's future together.
