 FABULOUS REVIEW: THE GLOBAL SOUL: THE BUDDHA PROJECT by TheatreWorks
Similar to what was attempted in 'The Flying Circus Project,' an act of staging the juxtapositions of artistic discourses, Western and Asian theatrical forms, and different language mediums, Ong collaborates yet again with world-class performers, each accredited in their own country and internationally for being masters of their respective arts.
Throughout the 75 minute performance, the five performers, supposedly assume personae (but this was certainly absent in their portrayals due to the fragmented nature of the performance) and 'play' out the travels of five different characters, these being: Millie, Miss Ping, The Woman, The Singer, and He.
Unlike other performers on stage whose 'travels' are performed as and through the body, its gesture and movement, The Singer's journey is musical and her body remains completely still.

Both song forms use classical Korean poetry as text and express a number of different themes including love of Nature, patriotism, and faithful sincere modes of living.
This presentation features selections of kagok, sijo, and also as a treat one kasa piece, which is a somewhat mysterious song form exhibiting influences from both kagok lyrical songs and folk music elements.
