Lee Ja-ram’s pansori ‘Snow, Snow, Snow’ Jeju Arts Center performance

제주시는 12월 4일부터 5일까지 이자람 판소리 '눈, 눈, 눈' 공연을 제주아트센터에서 연다고 11일 밝혔다.

'Snow, Snow, Snow', selected for the Arts Management Support Center's '2026 Performing Arts Regional Distribution Support Project', is a new pansori written and composed by singer Lee Ja-ram, and is based on Tolstoy's short story 'The Master and the Workers'.

Through one night between merchant Vasily and worker Nikita, who are lost in a blizzard and are approaching death, the question is asked, 'What kind of people will they be to each other?'

Lee Ja-ram, a national intangible heritage pansori learner, has expanded the horizons of creative pansori through 'Sacheonga', 'Eokcheokga', and 'The Old Man and the Sea'.

이번 작품에서는 전통의 뿌리에서 길어 올린 동시대 판소리로 톨스토이의 이야기를 들려준다.

고수 이준형, 연출 박지혜(양손프로젝트), 시노그래퍼 여신동이 함께한다.

'Snow, Snow, Snow', which has received rave reviews from critics and audiences since its premiere in 2025 and has established itself as the essence of contemporary pansori, won the grand prize in the traditional category at the 2026 Seoul Arts Awards, and was officially invited to the 80th Avignon Festival in July of this year, captivating the world by selling out all performances.

On stage, Lee Ja-ram's unique overwhelming control, which lasts for two hours with just the singer and drummer, and Shin Yeon-dong's mise-en-scène of a snowy field created with light and color come together.

It is expected to leave a deep lasting impression with the addition of pansori's unique realism that creates a snowstorm with fanning, chuim, and the audience's imagination.

관람료는 전석 3만원이며, 초등학생 이상 관람 가능하다.
