The Hands of Time 時間之手

An original Mask Theatre show for kids of all ages!
July 17-18 at The Kwai Ching Black Box Theatre

The King plays his saxophone hoping the prince will one day be ready to rule the Kingdom of Time. The Queen sings opera keeping a close watch on her son. But their teenage son wants no part in the family’s business. He just wants to party and rock n’ roll! Meanwhile, Maids 3, 6 and 9 try to sabotage and rule the kingdom themselves by stealing the King’s telescope of power! They put Maid 12, a storyteller who is faithful to the King, in prison. This makes the balance of nature tip over to the dark side and the prince has to learn to follow his heart in order to bring back the light…

Created and performed by local and Canadian artists, The Hands of Time is an epic, family fun adventure fusing mask and huge puppet, drama and comedy, shadow and light. It will sure to delight both parents and children!
