Description
Sound of the Ocean is an intense physical and emotional experience. The work traces the cyclical journey of water from a drop to a stream and from a river to the ocean. Created by Artistic Director Liu Ruo-Yu and Master Drummer Huang Chih-Chun for U-Theatre, this 90-minute production represents a compelling and seamless work of rhythm and movement.Five Distinct yet beautifully interwoven sections evoke the sounds and sensations of water, its elemental cool surges, gentle ebbs and insistent rat-a-tat-tats. The five are animated by a theatrical tension devoid of explicit narrative. It is propelled by rhythms beat out on temple bells, gongs, and skinned drums of different sizes. The collective expressive power of the group is made possible by the extraordinary technical and athletic prowess of the individual performers. Daring feats of speed and precision create huge dynamic arcs as the piece moves from one section to another.
