Trojan Women
National Changgeuk Company of Korea
Live from 3 Dec 2020, National Theater of Korea

The performance “The Trojan Women” was aimed to go on international stages from the beginning stages, and is considered one of the best examples of collaboration of the best domestic and foreign producers with great synergy. Directed by the renowned Singaporean director Ong Keng Sen, the Changgeuk is an adapted version of the play by Euripedes, written by the playwright Bae Sam-sik. The music, considered to have maximized the original beauty of pansori, was composed by Ahn Sook-sun, a major great singer of Korean traditional music, and Jung Jaeil, the music director of the movie “Parasite.” All of the visual factors on stage, which are expressed in a brief but intense manner, also contribute to boldly eliminating all that is unnecessary aside from the sound, the basis and core of the Changgeuk, and to indulge in its pure essence.

The story, with the unique Korean sound of pansori, is based on ancient Greece 3,000 years ago, and has garnered the universal sympathy and cheers from people around the world from many famous international stages. Playwright Bae Sam-sik’s perspective on ordinary women alienated from the tragedy of war surpasses language and cultural barriers to provide modern audiences with a time of deep reflection and reason. While the main characters lead the play each with their own energy, the eight members of the chorus remain on stage during the entire play to deliver a sense of strength and courage of the Trojan women, who have directly been faced with pain. At the beginning and the end of the play, the lonely spirit of the deceased, who has not been put to rest, appears on stage to scold the foolishness of war and man, to soothe the pain of these women. The songs of comfort in the unique words of the Korean language and sounds of Korea will penetrate deeply into and greatly touch the hearts of the audience.
