Ionah Show in Hanoi – A Fantastic Theatrical Journey

The new show Ionah (“Hanoi” spelled backwards) begins with iconic images of Hanoi an streets, and turns into a surreal and colorful dream journey for its main character, Lady Ionah.

The story is set in motion as Ionah waits for her sweetheart and becomes increasingly angry that he is late. Unable to curb her fury, the girl vents her anger with a slap on her sweetheart’s cheek. This act of inflicting pain on another causes Ionah to immediately be punished, as she is hurled into a fantasy world where she undergoes a bizarre journey of soul-searching. Finally, Ionah is able to make her way back to reality in time to transform her slap into a light caress.

The show portrays Ionah’s wild journey through spiritual torments with countless images of lively metamorphoses. Delightful imagination is on display through a diverse language of genres including modern dance, theatrical arts, breakdancing and visual arts. The play was inspired by the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri and many scenes are strongly influenced by Western mythology. Ionah uses state-of-the-art visual and audio technology to conjure the surreal world of Lady Ionah’s journey along with top-notch visual design and music composition.

After over one year in production, Ionah officially premiered in September 2015. The show is also staged weekly at 19:45 on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday at Star Galaxy Theater – No. 87 Lang Ha Str., Ba Dinh Dist., Hanoi.
