\n\nLuckily, three years later, a creative exploration, jointly produced by Weiwuying and the National Theater and Concert Hall, began so that such a marginal issue may take center stage. It is also an opportunity for more people to learn of Chih-chung, a rare breed of theater artist in Taiwan, feel his vitality, and experience his philosophy. I share the stage with him. Stage lighting is designed by senior Hong Kong theater designer LEE Chi-wai. Music by Kaohsiung native artist WANG Yu-jun. Consulted by National Awards for Arts winner LIN Ching-ru. In collaboration with producer Neo WU and our friends at Artexpected. I hope that such an all-star partnership may open a path to equality for The Center.
\n\nThe theater is filled with life stories. Its audience is composed of people of different ages and backgrounds. They share the same space for various reasons to enjoy the performance. The Center aims to bring people together in the theater to feel dance, listen to the performance, and, through our corporeality, witness a scenery of life that belongs to you and me.
