A North Korean sleeper agent stationed in Japan is given an unusual mission: escort the regime's headstrong heir through a capitalist theme park. Inside this dream factory, the agent's ideological devotion begins to crack as he recognises both the park and his homeland as hierarchies built on manufactured delusions. Produced by Five Days More Production Team, this 50-minute musical theatre dark comedy plays at the Forest Theatre and is suitable for ages 14 and over.
Why see this show?
An unexpected setting — a theme park — becomes the backdrop for a story about power, ideology and what it means to look down on the world. The clash between a loyal agent and a child discovering hunger for power makes for a sharp and surprising 50 minutes.
