"I'll find the angel bone that mine resonates with."
A man who owes his life to science sets out to repay his debt — by finding the angel bone, known to hold the secret of life and which fulfils man's desires.
But why does the bone in his arm keep trembling? It opens a door into genetic memory, hurling his whole world back through time: from a modern fossil excavation site to a medieval laboratory and to the ancient world.
−320°F is the latest play from visionary writer-director Hideki Noda OBE — a Faustian descent through myth, memory and other bad ideas. Twenty-five acclaimed Japanese performers in a production of extraordinary physical exuberance dig up a question that lies deep within us: what is life?
Starring Sadawo Abe, Suzu Hirose, Eri Fukatsu, and Hideki Noda himself.
Straight from a landmark run at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre.
“A feast for the eyes… a madcap, dazzling joy”

“Hideki Noda’s zany, imaginative rewrite of Romeo and Juliet is a colourful mash-up …the evening is crazy and raucous”
