Uncanny stage work explores self and metamorphosis. ZhiLin Zhang reimagines Kafka's timeless tale with experimental theatrical flair.
About this Event

This experimental theatre piece reinterprets Kafka’s The Metamorphosis. Audiences will witness striking physical performances that depict eerie transformation and inner alienation. Blending distorted body movements and surreal stage atmosphere, the production blurs the line between human and creature. Expect raw, unsettling acting, minimalist visuals and thought-provoking scenes questioning identity. Directed and reimagined by Zhilin Zhang, it delivers an immersive, avant-garde experience full of bizarre tension and deep philosophical reflection.
