The Blue Dragon is the sequel to Robert Lepage’s brilliant The Dragons’ Trilogy and marks the return of that play’s central figure, an artist who resurfaces in Shanghai 20 years later. Set in the effervescent paradox that is modern China, his encounters with a former art school classmate and a young Chinese artist open unexpected doors and bring about fundamental changes for each of them.
Directed and co-written by Lepage, renowned internationally for his imaginative and innovative work for the stage and screen, The Blue Dragon bears all the hallmarks of his original and wonderfully visual style. As always, Lepage relies on the one inexhaustible resource the theatre possesses — the audience’s intelligence.
