Description DasSHOKU SHAKE! is the fourth work in the award-winning DasSHOKU repertoire, the unique culture-crushing dementia that has been recognised by audiences in sell-out seasons around the world since 1999. Inspired by the devastating earthquake and tsunami that rocked Japan in 2011, this latest chapter bursts out of the earth to assault the senses. In it Umiumare’s punk ingénue (a character that wouldn’t be out of place in the ‘60s cult series Monkey) joins a troupe of wanderers traversing the world and experiencing its shaky ground as a series of hell-on-earth fantasies.
