Dear ZIPANG friend
*In case you missed the most recent Zipang event, you can click here for the online report about the Zipang afternoon of stories from the library of King Ashurbanipal at the British Museum on 12 January. It includes recordings of Fran Hazelton telling The Poor Man of Nippur, Badia Obaid telling Dumuzi (in Arabic), and June Peters telling The Flood. http://www.zipang.org.uk/pastevents/120119.htm
*There's a play in London soon which doesn't have Zipang storytellers in it but is not to be missed!
Ashurbanipal: the last great king of Assyria. 28th February - 3rd March in the Crypt Gallery, Euston Road, NW1 2BA. Thursday-Sunday at 7.30pm. Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2.30pm. Tickets £15/£10 (concs).Tickets can be bought a the door (for cash) but they are selling fast so it's advisable to book online through this link https://www.catharsistheatre.com/ashurbanipal
The Crypt Theatre is at the back of St Pancras church with the famous caryatids at its front. It is reached through a gate in Duke Street, which is a turning off Euston Road near a Premier Inn. There is no wheelchair access. If you don't need wheelchair access, get there by hook or by crook. This play will make your toes curl, your blood boil and hairs stand up on the back of your neck!
Best wishes,
