PERFORMANCE CANCELLATION
The performance is cancelled due to the outbreak of COVID-19.
Soup of Reincarnation is a puppet show which breaks away from the conventional framework and combines elements from both the traditional puppetry and modern theater. It revisits the lives of iconic female roles from traditional repertoire with a feministic take. These female protagonists are the chaste wife (WANG Pao-chuan), the adulterous wife (PAN Jin-lian), and the serpent fairy wife (PAI Su-chen). They retrace their former lives with Meng Po who stations by the River of Forgetfulness and serves passing souls the soup of reincarnation before they cross the river into their next lives. The experience releases them from the shackles of their love and desires and grants them an opportunity of rebirth. The performance was awarded the Best Performance of the Year by the Golden Melody Awards for Traditional Arts and Music in 2018 and was invited by the Festival Mondial des Théâtres de Marionnettes in France in 2019.
