TheatreWorks’ Artistic Director, Ong Keng Sen has been commissioned the second time round by the Vienna Schauspielhaus to create a new work. Based on the Japanese novel, “The Makioka Sisters” by Junichiro Tanizaki, four European women play out the story of the Makioka Sisters, a nostalgic recreation of the sumptuous, intricate upper-class life of Japan, following the Second World War. Through its full-life and precise portraits of four sisters, their daily lives, their relationships with each other, Chinoserie is a rememberance of a lost time. Reminiscent of Chekov’s ‘Three Sisters’, the Makioka sisters are heroines setting out for the new world.
