Marco Polo is the legendary Western explorer of the East who most often comes to mind when tracing historical Eastern and Western links. About 700 years ago, he embarked on his famous expedition to China and his travel notes became a major inspiration around the world for people curious about this mysterious ancient oriental nation. The dance-drama Marco Polo presented by the NCPA mirrors Polo's travels through the experiences of a modern man obsessed by the Italian's original journey as he traces his routes through ancient China, absorbing through all his senses the splendid and enchanting roots of Chinese culture and philosophy. |
