Goblin Party

Founded in 2007, Goblin Party has performed in and out of Korea using a traditional Korean monster goblin as its symbol.

As the company consists of artists who can both choreograph and dance, a choreographer or a leader may differ from performance to performance. Goblin Party places emphasis on communication and is interested in producing performances that extend the audience’s vision. Goblin Party creates performances based on in-depth research on humans who face familiar or unfamiliar situations. Many situations which a human being experiences lead to different phenomena and to invisible and diverse emotions.

Goblin Party usually goes through human emotions and physical responses that emerge from familiar or unfamiliar situations and experiences. They then create stories to imagine and meditate on all their experiences and feelings.
