Halmang, Myth of Jeju Island
Presented by Korea Children's Culture & Arts Centre production

According to local tradition, the goddess Halmang, also known as Granny, is the creator of Jeju Island, its mountains, valleys, hills and rivers. The highest mountain on Jeju Island almost reaches the elbow of this good-humoured giantess, and the deepest river just laps her ankle.
Join in the fun with the performers from the Korean Children’s Culture and Arts Center. Become the mountain, the ocean and the wind as the rhythm and sounds of Jeju Island draw you into the mythology of a small Korean island. Sometimes the simplest creations can have wondrous results!

Comments
We're members of a small Korean Language Group for children. We would like to attend a performance (2pm on 26th of March) as a group and meet/interact with the cast of Halmang, Myth of Jeju Island before or afterwards?
Is there any chance of lining up some type of additional cultural experience or meeting?
Thanks
Angus
look forward to be the part of it.
