This means that there are always impressive set designs, ingenious and theatre-fitting stagings, extravagant costumes and also it usually means that every seat is good and suitable for the performance. … More Le Rêve

7 June 2009, Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, London. I was the only person in the office that was excited about seeing Kodo again! Hehe, they are brilliant, I love them.
