Monkey, Journey to the West

Monkey: Journey to the west is a stage adaptation of the 16th Century Chinese novel Journey to the West, by Wu Cheng'en. It was conceived and created by the Chinese actor and director Chen Shi-zheng, together with the British musician Damon Albarn and British artist Jamie Hewlett (the man Behind Tank Girl and Gorillaz). However, the original idea came from Jean-Luc Choplin, head of the Chatelet Theatre in Paris



I know its for the 2008 Olympics but its always great to see Jamie Hewlett's work come to life with out having to wait for a Gorillaz album to drop. Plus: try to count all the sport events that the all the character reenact.
