Moshe Cohen and NOHspace CoPresent

Mr. Yoowho's Holiday

December 18th - January 3rd, 2009
Friday at 8pm Saturdays & Sundays at 3pm

 

Mr. YooWho discovers his dream of traveling the world in the most unlikely of places, a field of sunflowers. He travels through a potpourri of wonder generating laughter that reaches far across generational lines. Enter a world where humor and poetry intermingle with precision mini-board high diving, a world where European clown and mime mix with Japanese Kyogen and Yiddish Absurdism.

Following rave reviews in Europe (“Charlie Chaplin of a modern time”,) Moshe Cohen brings his show back home to San Francisco. In the fall of 2008 Moshe traveled to Krakow to work intensely with director Marek Pasieczny, bringing together work that Moshe has developed over the last twenty years. After serious dramaturgy work, Moshe unveiled his new work at the basement cabaret theater Loch Camelot. Moshe now builds upon this foundation in collaboration with Theatre of Yugen, injecting a Noh and Kyogen influence to his insightful ritual of travel.
