The Charlie-Chaplin like Korean comedy The Chaser will feature acrobatics and stunts with impeccable comic timing. A treat for everyone in the family, this comedic piece tells the story of a bungling detective’s wild-goose chase after a book is stolen. With sleek dance moves, juggling acts and street magic, this interactive piece will have audience members at the edge of their seats as they could become part of the play at any time. — Esplanade

‘She convinced the audience not only by her technique of playing but also by her auto ironical attitude on stage, strong personal involvement and jokes about the European theatre tradition (after almost two and a half hours she said that the performance is so long because of Brecht himself). Jaram Lee and the whole ensemble were rewarded with loud applause.’ — Andrzej Churski, Deputy director of International Theatre Festival KONTAKT
