Philosopher Chuang-tzu testing his wife has been a popular story for the operatic performances throughout China. This rendition is most similar to the Peking Opera interpretation, with the wife, Tian, as the protagonist, telling her experience through five scenes.
Utilising the smaller theatre, the tale is told through the three types of character with the four key performance techniques.
The three performances offer different endings. Along with the iconic tragic versions, Estrangement and Repentance, this presentation also offers a more delightful finale, Reconciliation, in which Chuang-tzu regrets testing his wife and reconciles with her in his transformed identity.
Post-performance artist sharing on 17 March 2024 (Sunday).
