Mon­key: Jour­ney to the West


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 Albarnand Brit­ish art­ist Jamie Hewlett. This production is a triumph of colla­boration - between old and new, sight and sound, East and West. Developed in con­versation between Beij­ing, Dalian, Paris, London and Manchester it brings toget­her tra­diti­onal disciplines - acrobatics, sing­ing, danc­ing - with emp­hatically modern technology including ani­mation and dazzl­ing video proj­ection.

In order to solve a comp­lex need for the mixed sales of physical and digital products Grapewire built a custom web shop with ties to multiple suppliers.

The Mon­key Store covers all kinds of rela­ted merchandise rang­ing from kites, tea, books and CDs to digital music download.
