Description
abstractSynopsis:
The play adapts Marcel Ayme's novelette, Le Passe-Muraille (The-Walker-through-Walls), to discuss the power and restraints of talent and how destiny manipulates one's life. The story describes the life of a simple civil servant, Leon, who discovers his super power of walking through walls. He first seeks medical treatment when finding this ability. After having conflicts with his boss, he uses his super power and personifies himself as a wolf man to rob the banks. He got stuck in one of his operation and thus lives in the walls. This adaptation adds a female janitor, who also has the super power of walking through walls. Living in modern society, she is content of being a simple citizen. Through Leon and the janitor's conversation, the play addresses its key concerns of talent and destiny. The performance incorporates real actors and puppetry. Located in corners next to a garage, Leon and the janitor perform in the shelves of the racks, showing their facial expressions only. Puppets are made of daily-life articles. Actors would wear puppet costumes on one hand and enact the hand of the puppet with another.
