【Weiwuying 5th Anniversary】Singing All the Night
Let me audition!
16-year-old A-mei has no choice but to become a cabaret singer to support her hospitalized mother, Feng-chun.
During her time in the performance sector, she witnesses the rise and fall of the cabaret culture. Her childhood friend, a pianist named Chang Chao-sheng, is at a complete loss for what to do about his feelings for her. She has a both antagonistic and friendly relationship with the mysterious, beautiful Yu-yen, another singer. And she also has to deal with the cabaret owner, Hung Ge, who at times seems to have feelings for her. Aside from all of that, her mother is unconscious in the hospital and her father is a hopeless gambler. Within such a maze of varying desires, A-mei is looking for a way out and trying to find answers.
The play is about the rise and decline of a cabaret variety show performer, A-mei, and how she gradually finds stability and maintains her life against the backdrop of the ever-gleaming cabaret stage. Forced down a certain path, survival is her only option.
We fix our gaze on the stars and believe tomorrow will be better until we look down and realize that we have become someone we don't even know.
At least we can look at the stars.
Maybe the next tomorrow really will be better.
