Jump

The musical comedy Jump is a hilarious, innovative mix of martial arts (including Korea’s traditional military martial arts of taekwondo and taekkyeon) and high-flying, jaw-dropping acrobatic stunts. ‘Jump’ was named the ‘most watched performance’ for two years in a row at the UK’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and has been named Korea’s most representative nonverbal performance. In an easy-to-follow tale of bungling burglars and shy lovers, the uncomplicated plotline springs to life with outstanding comedic acting and amazing displays of physical skill. As the final scene draws to a close in a seemingly death-defying display of martial arts and acrobatics, audiences remain glued to their seats, breathless for more.
