(Performed in Chinese with English subtitles) Time: May 14~ 16, 2009 7: 30 pm May 16~ 17, 2009 2: 30 pm Place: The Metropolitan Hall--Taipei Cultural Center ( 25 Pa-De Rd., Sec. 3, Taipei Tel:02-25775931) Produced and Presented by: Creative Society Theatre Company Written and Directed by: Katherine Hui-ling Chou Cast: Yen-ling Hsu Hau-chien Hsu Yi-hsiu Lee Wei-wei Wu Shou-yuo Liu Ting-yi Chu Alan Yang Original work: Li Yu (Liweng), Silent Operas, Chapter Six: “A Male Mencius’s Mother Educates His Son and Moves House Three Times,” Qing Dynasty. Calligraphy: Tong Yang-Tze Li Yu, the best-selling Chinese author of his time, creates his highly-stylized manner of writing in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty. Priding himself on pleasure, newness and subtlety, Li Yu startles his readers and audiences by transferring tradition to spectacle. Katherine Hui-ling Chou, the distinguished playwright and director in Taiwan Modern Theater, appropriates the homosexual love affair invented by Li Yu in the 17th century to represent this unconventional cross-gender spectacle with her very own subtlety and wit in the 21st century. This is a story manifesting love and relationship in the manner of inversion and displacement within a time span of two decades: the Nanfung fashion (homosexual relationship) that was commonly practiced in Fukien in the early 20th century and the conservative, repressed ambiance which enveloped Taiwan in the 1960s. With Katherine Hui-ling Chou’s unique time-expanding and region-crossing deployment, He is my Wife, He is my Mother stages the scenario of love and relationship that transcends gender and surpasses blood.
