Highlight: Into the darkness of the heart
By Diane Baker / Staff reporter
The Tai Gu Tales Dance Theater (太古踏舞團) is back at the National Experimental Theater in Taipei this weekend with a new work that interweaves performance genres, cultures, feminism and generations in a bid to get to the core: the human heart.
The choreographer of
Heart Scenery (心之景), Wu Tsai-lin (吳采璘), is well-versed in cross-cultural influences and artistry: Her parents are Wu Hsing-kuo (吳興國) and Lin Hsiu-wei (林秀偉).
Lin founded the dance troupe in 1988, two years after she helped Wu Hsing-kuo found the Contemporary Legend Theatre (當代傳奇劇場), so Wu Tsai-lin grew up seeing her parents create works that fused Eastern cultural traditions and contemporary Western practices.
