i.e. is a theatre company and creative collective that makes... stuff. Sometimes we act. Sometimes we sing. And, more often than not, we tell stories.
The legend of Sun Wukong - the self-proclaimed Monkey King who shakes the foundations of the Heavens and embarks on a great Journey to the West - is a wildly compelling tale with origins largely lost in the mists of time. It features demons, dragons, heroes, villains, monsters, magic, and even the Buddha himself.
And yet, the monkey steals the show. Riding a cloud, wielding a shape-changing staff and a truly absurd amount of superpowers, Sun Wukong is immortal in every sense of the word. Born from a rock and born TO rock, his popularity, rather than fade into time, has only grown over the past 500 years.
