Leodo : The Paradise





A multimedia composite performance that expresses the journey of a girl swept away by a storm based on Jeju's folk tales and heading towards the Island of Hope, "Ieodo", through the traditional Korean emotions of "han" and "heung".
Leodo : The Paradise
Creative Traditional Dance Music
The Korean style of total theatre combined dance, singing, percussion, multi-media and a tale. Leodo is a mythical island and artistic nirvana in the folktale of Jeju Island, where lost souls at sea dwell in paradise. MARO is able to capture the ungraspable paradise of Leodo through not only fascinating artistic skills but also by delivering the key concept of Kut: deep sorrows being taken away by the joy of arts. The talented seven-member ensemble will draw you into the imaginary world of Jeju Island.
