[BCMA] Monkey King & Other Folktales

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Through mime, magic, jokes, stories and music, the audience will be
introduced to the Monkey King and other Chinese folktales as well as
traditional instruments. Physical theatre artist Gerardo Avila and Vancouver
Chinese Music Ensemble (VCME) invite all to Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical
Chinese Garden on May 23, 2015 for an hour of interactive musical comedy.

Monkey King (Sun Wukong) is the main character in the Chinese classical
novel Journey to the West.
Inspired by this legendary character, the actor/comedian Gerardo Avila will
use magic, mime and jokes to entertain all ages and introduce them to
Chinese folklore. The music and sounds will be provided by VCME members and
their traditional instruments: Jirong Huang (erhu), Sarah Tan (guzheng) and
Zhong Xi
Wu (suona).
