The Diver. Colin Teevan

Drawing on the themes of cruelty, imperialism and betrayal, Hideki Noda and Colin Teevan's new play, The Diver, ingeniously links the ancient Japanese Tales of Genji with a Noh theatre play and a contemporary murder. In a production at Soho Theatre award-winning actress Kathryn Hunter rejoined legendary Japanese director Hideki Noda and the team behind Soho/Tokyo hit play The Bee for this physical and inventive collaboration.The Diver opened at the Soho Theatre in June 2008.
