The performance is based on the true story of singer Leonard Cohen, who in the 90s holed up in a Buddhist monastery for 5 years. The author of the songs such as “Hallelujah” or “Dance me to the end of love” took the name Jikan – the one who is silent. In our story, he is visited on Mount Baldy by the greatest stars of world music, and their surprising stories about Cohen are based on authentic statements.

In 1994, Leonard Cohen left show business and civilization to hide in a Zen monastery on Mount Baldy in California. He became a Zen monk, receiving the Japanese name Jikan. After spending 5 years in a convent, he abandoned it for a Woman.
