A playground without rules.
Where fear and freedom converge at the edge of limits.
Where tension and curiosity spark before every barrier.

For all who press forward, colliding unpredictably,
across unfamiliar, precarious borders.

YA Theater Production Dangerous Playground

Youth Theater, Alive and Breathing Again After Seven Years

First presented in 2018 as part of the Youth Artist Showcase, Dangerous Playground now returns in an expanded form.Kim Kyung-hee—director, scenographer, and head of Creative Group NONI—delves into the themes of “relationships” and “technology,” once again revealing her singular artistic vision. As the boundaries of the stage dissolve and structures merge with the performers’ bodies, Dangerous Playground comes alive with the energy and spirit of today’s youth.

From Parkour to Circus, Theater to Cheerleading: Youth on Stage

Twenty-four young performers present the results of workshops with professional coaches in parkour, acting, stunt cheerleading, and more—an exploration of youth from various angles. The time they spent sensing and questioning with their whole bodies has been transformed, through the heat of summer, into a work charged with limitless possibility. At times propelled by the dynamic force of physical technique, at others by the subtle solidarity of emotion, Dangerous Playground unfolds as stage and audience collide and expand together. In that moment, spectators are invited to join a ritual of rediscovery, encountering their own youth anew.

Created, Designed & Directed by Kim Kyung-hee

Head of Creative Group NONI, Kim Kyung Hee has collaborated extensively with artists, specialists from other disciplines, civic communities, and young people, with a focus on the relationship between space, objects, and the body. She continues to explore the connections between art and what lies outside established systems, between the material and the immaterial, while positioning herself as a mediator.
