***** contemporary masterpiece 14 Aug 2008
A stunning, visual tour de force that leaves one enthralled, astounded and inspired. A truly breathtaking production from a very large cast who are all exquisitly talented. Movements flow seamlessly into one another; captivating the viewer. I would love to see this production: on an odeon style stage; with the performance space sunk into the round; traditional live Korean music playing for the dancers; and some level adding set. 10/10

***** Absolutely brilliant & amazing! 13 Aug 2008
I greatly enjoyed their show “puppet” last year and when I heard these koreans are back this year with a different show, nothing stopped me to catche them up. Again, they didn’t disappoint me, in fact impressed more making my end of the day more pleasure. It seems the way of their dance has been upgraded, more vibrant and still as spotless dancing skills as last year. Puppet had the taste more to the general public. This hamlet episode has has rather deep and sophiscated atmosphere all around but I have to confess the show seems to have every plots to absorb the audiences. I coudn’t afford any seconds to take my eyes off them. If anyone’s out there who is a big fan of the essence of modern dance, this is definitely the show you can’t afford to miss!
