Program Information

〈THE OVERCOAT〉 is a non-verbal family performance that was recognized by global performing arts professionals and audiences at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. 

〈THE OVERCOAT〉 offers magical screen art that constantly unfolds on stage, drawing attention from curious children. 

Jane is mischievous but the more we see, the more we love the girl.

And the big, white screen becomes her toy!

The live music that perfectly fits Jane＇s body language, and its sound effects are also fantastic! 

With its colors and sounds, 〈THE OVERCOAT〉 reminds us of the importance of family’s interaction, care and love that have become dull.​ 

Jane, a playful girl, always wants to play with her father. 

But he carries a briefcase to work every morning and rushes away to work.

Today, Jane takes hold of the tip of Dad＇s overcoat and never lets him go! 

But her father leaves her.

Left alone and bored, Jane starts playing 

with a ball of wool from her father＇s overcoat ...

But wool is strange! Ting thang ~ Ppong~ Tick !!! ??

From now on, there will be amazing scenes in the big screen!

Jane begins to wonder about the identity of the wool. 

She will have a fantastic time in the house. 

What is it that little Jane has finally found by ceaselessly unraveling the soft wool?​
