STORY

It is a tale of one boy who can speak with Red Dragon in the ground, and mysterious travellers who arrived at the shore of the small seaside town where the boy lives. People of town was suffering by poverty, and try to reject travellers, but travellers suggest to use their magical caldron which can heal anything.It can fix a broken cane, and also can even heal a dying father. People was suspicious at first, but gradually, they try to use the caldron for earning money...

During Waleslab project in 2014,we did many interviews about the relationship between Wales and Japan through nuclear technology, and also researched about Welsh myth, especially Red Dragon. And we created a new metaphysical musical piece for the future of Wales and Japan.

Therefore,

Now,we really wish to bring this project to Wales and hope to re-create this musical play with people in Wales! Please check the full video of this play!
