Blue Elephant Theatre Announcement

We have now surrendered our theatre building but continue to work to offer participation opportunities, including workshops for early years on Mondays and Tuesdays. You can read more about our plans for the future here.

Amanda Vilanova has written a beautiful piece about the impact of the theatre building here for Writers Mosaic.

Much of our website is now out of date and we will be replacing it as soon as possible.

Please note that our new registered address is 167-169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London W1W 5PF

Jukai 樹海

by Theatre Témoin

"I came to myself in a dark wood, where the true way was wholly lost" Dante

Dates
Tuesday 28 September 2010 - Saturday 16 October 2010

At the base of Mount Fuji lies a stretch of forest known locally as 'The Sea of Trees'. Centuries of secrets lie hidden under the mossy earth, where rivers of lava have hardened over to form the cavernous forest floor. Thousands of people who have entered these woods have never been seen again. Some simply got lost. Others went in intending to disappear…

Theatre Témoin collaborates with Taiko drummers to devise a new piece which incorporates half-mask, contemporary theatre and Japanese traditional music to tell a story about straying from the path.
