Working with an international cast of 10 performers including Daniel Proietto(AfterLight) and long time collaborator Damien Jalet (Babel (words)), three musicians and a calligrapher, Cherkaoui explores Tezuka’s fascinating world - a blend of tradition, science fiction and contemporary reality. Two ofTezuka’s manga stories which are well known in Japanese popular culture –Astro Boy and Buddha – have particularly captured Cherkaoui’s imagination in creating this new work.
