Er ToshtukEr Toshtuk
Synopsis:
This is a world premiere of an experimental theatre piece. It features artists from Kyrgyzstan and Yara Arts Group performers. It will be performed in a combination of Kyrgyz and English but will be completely accessible to American audiences. This synopsis is from the press release: "Er Toshtuk (Sir Toshtuk), a magical and darkly humorous theatre piece, is based on one of the oldest Kyrgyz epics about a journey into the underworld and out into the cosmos. Toshtuk, a young warrior, falls into the Underworld and must battle giants, monsters, and a killer cauldron as he grows up, finding love and loyal friends. The tale is a part of the cultural heritage of the people of Kyrgyzstan, a land of nomadic horsemen, whose memory is rich with the mythical adventures of ancestral warriors. The performance will be very visual, combining movement, song, dance and shadow puppetry. Movement will include a traditional shamanic dance called jinde-be (a dance of being possessed by a spirit). Music will be performed by Nurbek Serkebaev (Kyrgyzstan) on ancient instruments including the kyl-kiyak (a small, bowed, unfretted fiddle with two strings and a plaintive tone), chopo cho'or (a pottery ocarina), temir o komuz (a metal jaw's harp) and jygach ooz komuz (a wooden jaw's harp with one string, unique to Kyrgyz music, that sounds like throat singing). Costume design includes Kyrgyz embroideries incorporated into modern costumes
