Lîng-tsong is inspired by the life of TÂN Tì-hiông, an activist championing for Taiwan independence movement and executed by the authoritarian regime. Piànn-Tiûnn, the creative team behind Lîng-tsong can skillfully introduce folk art elements into theater works and reinterpret traditional temple cultures of Taiwan. This time, they are going to summon the spirit of the martyr and revisit the passage of history through cultural lens.
Lîng-tsong combines exhibition with nine interactive performances. A choreographed dance with dancers and puppeteers maneuvering giant god costume rewrites history with a modern take as they retrace and resume the halted footsteps of those who sacrificed their lives for the democracy of Taiwan.
