The Emperor
Creative TouristA world premiere based on the astonishing book by legendary journalist Ryszard Kapuściński, from the team that brought you Kafka’s Monkey. Hunter creates a mesmerising cast of characters, all servants to a despotic ruler on the brink of downfall. In a kingdom obsessed with title and tradition, the lowly and the loyal have incredible stories to tell.
“Ms. Hunter’s performance is perhaps the most physically remarkable I’ve ever seen on a stage.” – The New York Times on Kafka’s Monkey
