【2023 Weiwuying Circus Platform】Thunar Circus - Let's Kau-puê & W.H.O. Theatre - Phah-thih People Party
Thunar Circus - Let's Kau-puê
Celebrating the festivity of the land, this dynamic fusion of Taiwanese folk parade and circus showcases a vibrant feast teeming with rustic and unbridled flavors of local culture. Through the spectacle of the circus, the audience is allowed to hear and see a performance conveying a traditional form of mingling and bonding known as kau-puê.
Folk arts that bond and bring joy to people in festive celebrations are themselves the circus of the land, illustrating pictures of life and culture. They are the wildflowers that spring from the earth and root deeply in the lives, land and imaginations of the communities unfettered by time. This performance blends contemporary circus, traditional folk art of religious parade, juggling, and folk music, brimming with the excitement and action of folk parade. The show establishes a profound connection between individuals, the land, and the arts, and recounts the moving stories of life and culture.

W.H.O. Theatre - Phah-thih People Party
W.H.O. Theatre, consecutively awarded the "Creativity Award" of Artistic Performance division of World Yo-Yo Contest from 2013-2015, was founded by a group of performers who are non-professionally trained but passionate for diabolos and yo-yos. Since its inception, the Theatre has garnered numerous awards. In this new work, performers use the spinning motions of diabolos and yo-yos to recreate the industrial production line on stage. This aims to showcase the artisan spirit honed in the industry, and to forge a magnificent visual art.
The world at a microscopic level is filled with industrial manufacturing and finished products. In this micro world, one of the core products in the industry is bearings.
In various shapes and sizes, bearings possess a unique attribute of "spin", connecting countless mechanical components and driving the rotation of all things. Furthermore, bearing, a small steel component that creates endless dimensional models of props, is the foundation of all movements of diabolos and yo-yos that inspire limitless imagination through the dazzling skills of the performers. In street performances, we use hearing sense to stimulate movement, while in theaters, we create sound through physical rhythms. Through the visible movements derived from diabolos and yo-yos, we connect with the manufacturing process of industrial products.
