In February 2010, National Chiang Kai-Shek Cultural Center in Taipei produced a play called 1433—The Grand Voyage: A Music Theater Work Inspired by the Story of Admiral Zheng He. The play was directed by the prestigious American theatre director Robert Wilson with the collaboration of the U Theatre of Taiwan. The original script written by Ruoyu Liu, and starring the U Theatre’s Zhiqun Huang and Taiwanese Opera singer Meiyun Tang, 1433—The Grand Voyage is a unique theatre work about a famous Chinese sea explorer of the Ming dynasty, Zheng He (1371-1433). From the perspective of the western eye—Wilson’s eye, the local Taiwanese performance artists and the Taiwanese audience had a chance to enter the interior of Zheng He. This paper intends to discuss the intercultural elements in 1433—The Grand Voyage and further confirms the cultural regeneration in such cross-cultural collaboration. |
