Invasion (JoMarZeb)
Philippine Theatre UK • Amateur Company
About the show
Invasion (JoMarZeb) is a bold multimedia spectacle from Philippine Theatre UK, performed at theSpace @ Venue 45 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show leaps across time — from the tense streets of nineteen-forties Manila to modern-day Oxford — as three mischievous spirits, a teacher, a lawyer and a nun crash into the present. It blends horror, drama, comedy, music, film and history, placing a stark look at Imperial Japan's wartime atrocities, including the silenced suffering of Comfort Women, at its centre. Guided by writer-director Ramon C. Teñoso, the show runs for 75 minutes. Age guidance is 12+.
Why see this show?
A haunting and surprisingly funny journey through history, memory and colonial trauma. Philippine Theatre UK mixes live theatre, film and music to create something genuinely unlike most shows at the Fringe — ambitious, affecting and worth your time.
