Fire Drill Scenario【SPOTLIGHT: A Season of Performing Arts 2026】Tai Kwun

Those aboard Fire Drill Scenario need not switch mobile phones to airplane mode nor fasten seatbelts. The journey will be turbulence-free, but be prepared for contingencies nevertheless!

Fire Drill Scenario is nothing along the lines of the escape room, prison break or the infinite loop in The Exit 8. South Korean cross-media artist Geumhyung Jeong challenges the established format and significance of "performance", as she actively engages the audience in her quest to prompt contemplations on its meaning. Sporting a rustling outfit with a futuristic design, Jeong is performer, speaker and safety officer rolled into one. In fascinating detail and yet free from lecturing, she walks the audience through JC Cube's floor plan, fire equipment as well as evacuation tips, at times professionally serious but otherwise wickedly hilarious. Complicated the information may seem, together it forms a survival kit that comes in handy. The adventure, complete with a mechanical sculpture, is an experiential, ceremonial fire drill like no other before.

Following last year's staging in Melbourne, the Tai Kwun edition of Fire Drill Scenario is set to lift the curtain on SPOTLIGHT: A Season of Performing Arts 2026. Get an all-new taste of Tai Kwun from this mind-bending mix of performance, public speaking, installation display and safety training!
