SYNOPSIS
If you are a fan of high impact and dynamic Korean productions such as BREAKOUT and Jump, you will definitely be bowled over by Sachoom!
Sachoom or Love Dance is the abbreviation of Dance When You are in Love in Korean. It is a nonverbal dance musical packed with 80mins of dynamic dancing, which can be appreciated by all generations from all countries.
Sachoom brings to us a story about three friends, Jun, Sun and Bin from the time they were born till their twenties through various dance genres such as hip-hop, jazz, techno, break dance, pop dance, modern ballet, contemporary dance and many more. Except for a few songs, the entire story is expressed through vibrant and powerful dance movements. No words.
Korea's top dancers who endured vigorous and numerous auditions were cast to play the leading 3 characters. Each individual dancer’s talents are so exceptional that fan clubs have been created.
Since the first Sachoom performance stage in October 2004, this dancical has seen over 1300 performances to date. In 2007, Sachoom took the record as the most internationally performed musical production in a short period of time as it toured 32 cities. Sachoom was also the first Korean production to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, receiving international acclaim as it was nominated as a powerful musical.
