Joel Tan’s by all accounts very out there satire on the repatriation of questionably acquired museum objects follows a 1000-year-old statue of the Boddhisattva Guan Yin that lives in the British Museum. It transpires that it was stolen; but then the Chinese government has made an equally unedifying claim to it. Experimental theatre-makers emma + pj direct.
