Migrant Overtures
T1081262885
In 1653, a Dutch East India Company ship was wrecked off the coast of Korea. Hendrik Hamel, one of the survivors, stayed for fourteen years in what was then a closed society, before finally escaping and returning 'home to Holland. His report of this period became the first documentation of Korea in the West. Taking Hamel's fascinating story as a starting point, London-based, international, visual theatre company, Sleeping Dogs, use techniques of animation and object theatre to explore the idea and identity of home in the 21st century.
