The Will Build To 2015

Description

Description

A provocative piece of “verbatim theatre” that aims to stimulate debate about the value of Hong Kong’s urban heritage. Exploring five key elements – space, pace, functionality, spirituality and identity, The Will to Build examines the past, present and future of Hong Kong’s relentless cycle of construction and destruction, and its effects on the bodies, hearts and minds of the city’s inhabitants. This powerful drama skillfully weaved together verbatim transcripts of Theatre du Pif’s interviews with real people who are intimately involved in and affected by the city’s obstinate will to build.
