Introduce of The Return

The Return is a bizarre odyssey through human life based on German playwright Bertolt Brecht’s epic, Legend of the Dead Soldier. When a loving father is senselessly killed at war, his memory is escalated to that of a hero, allowing those left behind to grieve and to celebrate, finding a new meaning in life. With minimal dialogue, striking visual imagery is created through the use of movement and mime. Dim lighting, long moments of stillness and bursts of frantic activity and slapstick blends seamlessly, evoking emotions that range from sadness to madness. From questioning the concepts of life and war, it focuses on how to live happily when wars are unceasing in society. The Return evokes the universal sympathy of human life with various theatric languages such as physical theatre, mime and live accordion music. But don’t be afraid to laugh because there is also plenty to tickle the funny-bone despite the nature of the story.


Synopsis
A man, who gets a journey behind his routine life, wanders to discover something that leads him to somewhere. He gets to a bus stop, and waits for the bus with some other people for a long time. However, the bus never stops for them, so he is worn out.
In a sudden moment, a familiar illusion appears to him, and he is taken along to an unknown place by it. Over there, he arrives in a strange place, and meets a politician who is mad for war.
He is forced to become a soldier of military band. Every 3 o’clock, the war breaks out after the sign of his drumming. Perceiving that his drumming causes lots of people’s death, he suicides in confusion. However, a politician makes the soldier as a hero for his interest so that the dead soldier’s body is dressed up, and people march along with it…
