Physical Sentiments Theatre Company of LeeQingZhao the Private

Physical Sentiments Theatre Company of LeeQingZhao the Private (abbr. LQZ) established in 2006. The contemporary theater inscribed from the name of Lee Qing-Zhao(1084-1155), a great female poet in Song dynasty, and developed revolutionary approaches to boundary of Ya and Su, the enframed "traditional" and the barred "modern." LQZ takes highly self-awareness of sentimentalism to retreat to the triangle topological dimensions between Taiwan, China and Japan by assigning to the cultural taboos.

「李清照私人劇團感傷動作派」成立於2006年,以宋朝女詞人李清照之名,全方位展開支解雅俗再劃傳統的內部革命,以高度自覺的感傷主義願景,在台灣、中國、日本的三角三維拓樸向度之間重探東亞現代性的諸項禁忌。

Beam of world lights upon me, dust of memory makes me allergic. Dust and light are not something I can wave away, the tears blur my eyes inevitably.

世界的光斑朝我射出,記憶的灰塵使我過敏,微塵與光線不是我能揮去,我無可避免淚眼朦模。

The Coy Hunchback Steals His Maternal Decree

Written and directed by Liu Liang-Yen, the play, a mix of sexual deviancy and tongue-in-cheek humor, blends Japanese avant-garde theater master Shuji Terayama’s The Hunchback of Aomori and Beijing opera classic Silang Visits His Mother to investigate the psyche of a man who abandons his wife to find his mother, who welcomes him into her bed.

The visual design applies the characters of hunchback and silang to reflect the collage of tradition and wildness in this play. The mixture of Chinese with Japanese, and kabuki with Beijing opera highlight different cultural heterogeneity.

劉亮延編導,一齣融合性變態與諷刺幽默的戲劇。改編自日本寺山修司作品《青森縣的駝子》及京劇《四郎探母》,講述楊四郎冒死奔回故國,只為見娘一面的老梗,蔓生出母子亂倫的情節。以傳統戲曲語言,跨越精緻文化和俗文化的藩籬。

視覺設計上分割了駝子與四郎兩個角色意象,也反映本劇俗艷狂野的拼貼,中日文夾雜、歌舞伎和京劇的唱念...在在突顯文化的異質性與交雜、衝突、合一。

The young men I once studied with are now most not of low degree; by Five Barrows their horses are plump and the mantles they wear are light.

Ciao, Ci Chao

Ciao, Ci Chao is a new play inspired from Ellen Chang's prestigious novel The Golden Cangue. The story is resituated within a single day complain and lament. It's a combination of stream of consciousness writing with Beijing opera, and Taiwan-based digital artist Lin Jin-Yao's work Auto Music Machine.

曹七巧重編自張愛玲經典小說《金鎖記》,鎖定寡婦曹七巧的一日生活編寫冗長的獨白,全篇一萬餘字扣除標點後全為連篇絮叨廢話,意識流的文體結合京劇表演,更大膽加入台灣數位藝術家林經堯於法國里昂發表的自動音樂機器作品。
