If the name’s not familiar, you might be a fan of Kid Koala and not even know it. The renowned Canadian DJ is bringing his talent for scratch back to NYUAD Art Center 12-13 March
Kid Koala has been to Abu Dhabi before, performing at NYUAD Art Center and this March he returns, performing his latest project, The Storyville Mosquito. Kid Koala first gained recognition as a scratch DJ in the early 2000s and has collaborated with the likes of The Gorillaz, Bjork, The Beastie Boys and has scored Hollywood movies, such as Shaun of the Dead, Looper, and The Great Gatsby. If his star power sounds intriguing, come check out The Storyville Mosquito, a live puppet show he is bringing to Abu Dhabi
The Storyville Mosquito tells the story of a country mosquito who dreams of moving to the city and becoming a jazz clarinetist. Like his 2014 show Nufonia Must Fall, Kid Koala’s upcoming production Storyville Mosquito will blend puppetry, miniature sets, multiple cameras, projection, and live musical performance to tell a universal story.
Bill Bragin, Executive Artistic Director of The Arts Center at NYU Abu Dhabi says, ‘Kid Koala’s first live film puppet theater piece Nufonia Must Fall was a huge hit with our audiences a few seasons ago. When we heard he was developing The Storyville Mosquito with the same approach but brand-new stories and visual world, we immediately signed into co-commission the creation of the piece. His work is almost like modern day Charlie Chaplin. Genius in conception and execution, heartwarming and accessible to the entire family. Kid Koala is also incredibly inventive and approachable, whether he’s visiting university classes or leading creative workshops’.
