About the ensemble
Established in 2003, Burnt Mango Dance Theatre began as an “nomadic international theatre collaborative”, creating and performing original works such as Aftermath with Cocoa (winner of the Melvin B Troy Award for Choreography. 2003), Diamond Baby (2004) and Craig & Miriam (2006) in Philadelphia, Bytom, Paris and London.
In the August of 2006, Burnt Mango returned to Hong Kong . Its eclectic ensemble include former office cubicle workers, freelance theatre professionals and musicians. With next-to-no budget but a passion and dedication to theatre practice, the company stands testimony to the fact that it is possible to do what you love and somehow, make a living as well.
許多他們所追求的，都已失去，
再也不能從這裡前進，也無法回頭，
只能永遠留在陰暗森林的深處，
在八九年仲夏之後。
挪威根本沒有森林。
這不過是村上先生的誤譯，大家就約定俗成的一個幻想。
但一想到會在這個沒有存在過的森林裹再遇到村上先生，跟他一邊聽著黃色潛水艇一邊喝啤酒，總覺得不可思議。我會像娛樂新聞的記者般向他打聽著渡邊君的近況，如何悼念直子逝世四十周年，綠的連鎖色情書店的分店數目．．．村上先生微笑不答，只注視著啤酒的泡沫，聽著iPod耳筒傳來的披頭四，說啤酒很好喝謝謝。這就是我想像中與村上春樹最坦誠的對話。
由村上春樹的《挪威的森林》出發，採用村上常用的二元平衡敘事手法，渡邊遊走於直子與綠兩個虛構世界，火紅年代的日本對照著後六四的香港，訴說一個關於挪威沒有森林的愛情故事。
Norwegian Wood isn't about a forest at all.
A mistranslation by Mr Murakami opens up a common space for imagination.
What if there was a chance to encounter Murakami in this non-existent forest, and to drink beer with him while listening to "The Yellow Submarine"..? Inconcieveable. But if I could, I would ask him - as a entertainment reporter might - "How's Watanabe doing these days? How does is he coping, 40 years after Naoko's death? How many outlets does Midori's pornographic bookstore franchise have now? And Murakami, still listening to the Beatles from his iPod, might smile at me over the beer foam and answer, "Thank you. The beer's not bad at all." This is how I imagine a frank conversation with Mr Murakami might go.
Using Haruki Murakami's bestselling novel "Norwegian Wood" as a point of inspiration, here is a tale about how there is no wood in Norway.
