Les Sept Planches de la Ruse

If there is one theater production you see this year then try 'Les Sept Planches de la Ruse' or The Seven Boards of Skill. Based on an ancient Chinese game, the tangram, in which seven different shapes are manipulated in almost infinite combinations, the show demonstrates how geometry is capable of producing exquisite visual poetry ( I knicked the last bit from the
Barbican's website).

I saw this last night and it blew me away. It's a fantastic fusion of graphic design & theater - haunting, inspiring and stunning. The music and production are superb so go see it!
