《英雄武松》

英雄是如何煉成的？

武松心懷鋼鐵意志，施展一身武藝，景陽崗上赤手空拳與老虎搏鬥，大顯神威美名揚。誰想人心險惡更甚獸性，命運前方等著他的卻是一段充滿了欺瞞、誘惑、不公不義、復仇的奇幻旅程。

 

2018搖滾水滸《英雄武松》，由當代傳奇劇場第三代年輕演員，興傳奇青年劇場扛下演出大任，展現新世代接班傳承的實力。劇中除了戲曲唱念作打、手眼身步法的精湛功力，還可看到中國文化中，三寸金蓮裹腳踩蹻、桌上飯食桌下調情、三更半夜摸黑過招，等種種超乎現代人想像的戲劇互動。

 

《苔痕》

作為 FOCA 馬戲跨界三部曲的最後一部曲,《苔痕》由德國舞蹈劇場團隊 Peculiar Man 及臺灣 FOCA 福爾摩沙馬戲團共同合作,揉合了包括馬戲特技、雜耍及舞蹈劇場的各種技術與美學。除了講求高度精準的肢體技巧外,《苔痕》更著重於探究表演動作背後的意義。身體技術不再只是提供景觀式的娛樂橋段,而是著重於人性的探索,窺視作品角色內在隱晦之處。《苔痕》從一棟廢棄的建物意象開展,表演者穿梭、藏身於其間,攀登其上又自由墜落。他們圍繞著它奔跑,彷彿時間的流逝與倒轉,渴求著無以名狀,可能永不存在,也無法存在的甚麼。在超現實的場景中,演繹人們如何在記憶、失落、欣喜與哀傷間游移。這棟房子成為被遺忘的夢想與記憶的家,也是在這現實與虛構間,不穩定的宇宙中,《苔痕》揭露被遺忘的事物的生命力。就像苔癬:這無根、最早出現在地球上的植物,蔓生於任何物體的表面,卻依然受到忽視。《苔痕》探索著關於失落、缺席、同在與孤獨的問題。《苔痕》以繁複、難以定義的表演風格,創造虛幻與現實交錯的氛圍。如雜耍般,丟擲著夢境與清醒的球,《苔痕》試圖碰觸人類內在不安、無助與徬徨的核心本質。

Hsing Legend Youth Theatre Wu Song—The Tiger Warrior

Wu Song - The Tiger Warrior - Hero or Outlaw?

 

Long before Luke Skywalker, another hero mastered the sabre, and fought imperial forces. His name? Wu Song – a martial arts master with deadly skills who can take on a tiger with bare hands. He is also one of Chinese literature’s best-known characters, and his story is told in Wu Song – The Tiger Warrior.

 

But not all heroes begin on the right side of the law…

 

Wu Song had to leave town aged 18, thinking he had accidentally killed a man. Wu Song – The Tiger Warrior picks up his story a year later, when he returns home to visit his ‘vertically challenged’ brother.

 

Intoxicated after accepting a drinking challenge, Wu Song becomes a local hero – and Chief Constable – after ‘taking care’ of a troublesome tiger. But one local resident likes him rather too much – his brother’s wife, Pan Jin Lain, who tries to seduce him.

 

Wu Song leaves town to avoid his sister-in-law’s advances, but returns just two months later to find his brother dead. Suspicious that the truth is being hidden, he conducts his own investigation – and then exacts justice.

 

Local corruption means Wu Song is soon framed for murders and marked to be killed, but his popularity means the court instead exiles him to a faraway prison. Yet he manages to escape with the help of a pair of inn keepers – despite the wife of one trying to turn him into stuffing for buns. As a convicted criminal, Wu Song has to continue as a fugitive, and eventually makes his way to Liangshan.

 

Forget what you thought you knew about heroes and about Chinese theatre: an intoxicating mix of Chinese opera, Kung Fu, street dance, acrobatics and mime, this skilful adaptation of one of Chinese literature’s greatest novels will transport you to the exciting world of the Song dynasty.

FOCA-Moss

“Moss”is a cross country and cross-genre collaboration between German dance theatre group Peculiar Man and Taiwanese contemporary circus

company FOCA-Formosa Circus Art. As the final chapter of “Circus Interdisciplinary Trilogy” of FOCA, “Moss” combines techniques and aesthetics among different circus skills and dance theatre. In addition to the highly accurate body techniques, this work focuses on the meaning behind the physicality as well. The skill is no longer just to provide a landscape of entertainment, but to focus on the exploration of human nature, and to peek into the hidden meaning of the characters. Five performers meet in a concrete set: an abandoned house, covered in ivy and about to be sold. The performers climb onto it, move it, hide behind it. They fall from its top while paying no resistance to gravity. They run around it like the time fl ows back and onwards, while creating a desire for something that does not or probably cannot exist.in the surrealistic scene, they express how people go through memory, loss, happiness and sadness.

The house becomes a home of forgotten memories and dreams. In this unstable universe between reality and fiction, this work discloses a feeling of aliveness for the forgotten. Like moss, rootless, first plant on earth. It grows on any surface and still it stays ignored. The piece opens questions based on a sense of loss, absence, togetherness and loneliness. “Moss” creates an atmosphere between illusion and reality by a complex yet undefined performance style. Juggling with dreams and soberness it tries to touch the core essence of human inner hesitation, helplessness and uneasiness.

 

Hsing Legend Youth Theatre

Wu Hsing-kuo established Hsing Legend Youth Theatre in 2016, under the umbrella of CLT, to provide intensive training and showcase opportunities for young talent in Taiwan.

‘Hsing’ is taken from founder Wu Hsing-kuo's middle name, which in its original form signifies two people raising a ‘ding’ (a cooking cauldron with legs) with four hands, and performing a ritual with songs and dances. The hands represent the four main roles of Peking opera, as well as peers who share the same passion for keeping traditions alive.

 

Hsing Legend Youth Theatre has performed in the Legend Opera, at the Legend Youth Xiqu Festival, during Taiwan Traditional Theatre Center’s opening season, and at the National Center for Traditional Arts. It holds regular workshops and showcases at the Fanqiao Theater and at schools and colleges, and its members participate in CLT's annual major productions, such as “Midsummer Night's Dream” (2016), “Faust” (2017), “108 Heroes -Tales from Water Margin II” (2018).

 

FOCA

“Formosa Circus Art” is named after this beautiful island, Taiwan. Its purpose is to develop the various contemporary circus arts of Taiwan, mixing them with other styles of performance including traditional forms, acrobatics, street culture and theatre arts; trying to create a physical vocabulary that is unique in Taiwan. Our team members come from many different fields of performance, including among others acrobatics, juggling, dance and drama. Through this work, we have over ten full-time performers. The predecessor of Formosa Circus Art was MIX Acrobatics Theater was founded in in 2011. We decided in 2014 to proudly sport the name of our beautiful island Formosa and to relaunch the company as “Formosa Circus Arts” – FOCA. The very same year, we appeared at TED x Taipei. In 7 years, we have performed in many places both in Taiwan and abroad, including in 2013 Festival Pisteurs d'Etoiles in Obernai and Festival d'Avignon Off in France, and KAKISENI Music Festival in Malaysia. We were invited to perform at A l'Est du Nouveau in Champagne in France, 2015 Tini Tinou International Circus Festival of Cambodia and the Taiwan Season of Edinburgh Festival Fringe. In 2016, we were invited by Semper Opernball Dresden in Germany, Macau International Arts Festival, Kaohsiung Spring Arts Festival, Taipei Arts Festival and Kaohsiung Weiwuying Arts Festival. In 2017, we were invited by DGI Sport & Culture Festival in Denmark, Festival d'Avignon Off in France and Tainan Arts Festival.
