Great Zodiac
July 19 – 20
The Great Zodiac Animal Race (Year of the Snake version), a solo puppetry performance that blends traditional shadow techniques with Japanese kuruma ningyō figure work. Originally commissioned by the Art Institute of Chicago, the show retells the zodiac myth through Asian pictograms and Lee’s own childhood recollections of Lunar New Year celebrations in Hawai’i. A joyful work for all ages, it fuses ancestral storytelling with contemporary visual invention.
