Details

A group of troublesome actors arrive at an ancient harbour in a modern city. They gather a crowd and for a few coins tell the story of Ke Zin, the dutiful daughter. Ke Zin, princess of the Isle of Joy, is always obedient and never questions her past or her future until the day the sea brings to her island home a strange sailor, a raving fool without a memory, a man who will challenge everything she believes in. Inspired by the legend of Pericles, The Dutiful Daughter is a timeless tale of love, power and transformation.
