Berlin ( Tagesspiegel ) - Big words for a small piece. Through a collaboration between Jeremy Wade and Japanese manga artist Hiroki Otsuka, a new artwork emerged in the form of a mix between manga and a TV show. Just in time for the premiere on 25.11.2009, both die-hard manga fans and newcomers gain a fresh insight into the colorful world of Japanese cult comics.
At the heart of this story is "Kawaii" (Eng.: cute). With its style, it replaced the Western image of the cool teenager with something entirely new. On stage, Wade staged a TV show for children—a world full of rainbows and stars, which suddenly crumbles to dust before the audience's eyes, revealing emptiness. Now, the host faces the challenge of selling this situation convincingly to the viewers.
Info: Premiere November 25, 2009-11-25
