"The Arrival held its audience in a state of rapture and curiosity" The New Zealand Herald
The Arrival takes you into the wondrous world of Shaun Tan's award-winning graphic novel.
Conceived to enchant all ages and without language barriers, Tan's imaginary world and its surreal creatures are lovingly rendered through expert puppetry and ingenious shadow play, with evocative music and movement.
An optimistic story of a stranger in a strange land, The Arrival will restore childlike innocence and curiosity, and send mind and spirit on a journey of discovery – to a magical land of flying ships, exotic birds and traveling balloons.
Leaving behind his wife and child, a man seeks better prospects in a foreign land. Baffled by indecipherable languages, peculiar customs, curious animals and dazzling architecture, he searches for accommodation, food and work – the foundation for reuniting his family – with help from sympathetic locals. The Arrival is heartwarming tale of overcoming hardship, of humanity and hope.
