The Land Project

土地計畫

土地計畫緣起於2013年,團長賀湘儀和藝術總監魏雋展各自在台灣徒步旅行,旅行的當下看見許多動人的人事景物,因而希望以田野的方式來採集台灣地方人物誌或是鄉野奇談以至於土地議題等等。我們想回到那古老說故事的人的行當,去蒐集故事,轉化故事,然後以魔幻的劇場空間去釋放故事的力量,讓這些屬於地方的故事,去碰觸人,進一步去探尋著:我是誰我為何在此我為何以這樣的方式在此生活著

土地計畫首部曲發表於2014年,
從台灣西海岸被污染的蚵仔還有喪失了溪王信仰的濁水溪出發,
發表了兩個作品—《蚵仔夜行軍》和《還魂記》,創造了有趣的當代寓言和神話。

The Land Project was first launched in 2013 after the head of the ensemble, Hsiang-Yi Ho, and the artistic director, Chun-Chan Wei, traveled around Taiwan on foot. While traveling, they witnessed many fascinating things and sceneries and met many interesting people, which then encouraged them to conduct field research to gather biographical notes of local residents, folktales, and even land issues. They hope to act as ancient storytellers who collect tales and stories and who transform those into theatrical productions, releasing the power of these stories by resonating them with the audience and constantly posing questions such as “Who am I?”, “Why am I here?” and “Why am I living this way here?”

 

First part of the Land Project was performed in 2014.

Telling stories about contaminated oysters in fishing villages in western Taiwan and depicting the folktales of Zhuoshui River, where local residents are deprived of their faith in the River God, One Player Short Ensemble presents two theatrical productions — The Angry Oysters and Come back from River, both of which are rather interesting contemporary fables and myths.
