Presentation
World Premiere:
Manchester International Festival
Tue 2 - Sun 14 Jul 2019
Leo Warner, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Lolita Chakrabarti, 59 Productions and Rambert bring to life a series of fantastical places in this world-premiere production set to premiere at Manchester International Festival in July 2019.
Centred on the edgy relationship between Kublai Khan, the volatile head of a vast empire, and explorer Marco Polo, this spellbinding mix of theatre, choreography, music, architectural design and projection mapping imagines a succession of alternative worlds – and reimagines what is possible in live performance.
