藝術總監的話

唐美雲

「夫天地者，萬物之逆旅；光陰者，百代之過客。浮生若夢，為歡幾何？」歡迎來到 2024 孟婆客棧！這是一段新故事、新旅程。唐美雲歌仔戲團將 2022 敲響金鐘「戲劇節目創新獎」的電視潮流 IP 劇，透過現代劇場＋戲曲＋半舞臺劇＝MIT 新形態歌舞劇，再現經典！

若看倌們對 2018 年舞臺公演《孟婆客棧》記憶猶新，那請您在鑼鼓響起大幕開之前，想像自己喝下孟婆湯，今日《孟婆客棧：冥星雙飛俠》重新來過！戲中戲plus戲外戲，看似獨立單元，卻又軸心貫通，串聯細節巧思，層次多變與舞臺契合，翻陳出新。人物層次是美感，角色編配是藝術，多重時空是挑戰，2024 劇場版將比電視版勾勒出更多維立體感官的樣貌。

一齣戲好不好看，取決於是否正確發力：以劇本情節發心、延伸，而後決定表演方式與形態，尋找合適演員、音樂、服裝、舞美等等；掌握各環節配合的律動，才能在唱念作打方方面面有效發力，與表演完美融合。歌仔戲舞臺是曠野、不是單軌；路那麼長、海那麼寬，前行不設限。感謝國家兩廳院藝術總監劉怡汝支持、指導，感謝老「棧友」導演戴君芳、編劇陳健星與廖珮宇、舞臺設計王世信、影像設計王奕盛、燈光設計邱逸昕、服裝設計黃文英、作曲編曲姬君達、編腔設計陳歆翰、武打技術編排戴立吾，以及編舞張逸軍等，攜手經歷過種種，我們仍在路上！

唐美雲歌仔戲團從不怕被定義，只怕定義僅有唯一！劇團為一個目標奮不顧身，一條路走到底，先有這個一，後面寫下無數個零才有價值；只有在方寸之間忘記藩籬，才能把不可能化作可能，成為您想成為的── 更多可能性。感謝唐文華老師再度跨刀，好友蔡振南、方馨、許富凱、方宥心接下「棧帖」，還有劇團老搭檔年姐、咪姐及小唐果們，大夥兒全心投入「經營客棧」。

來到孟婆客棧，有聲皆歌，音樂是時間的黏著劑，願臺上與臺下調到同頻，一同乘坐時光機跳轉多重宇宙，在熱愛歌仔戲中愈益璀璨光輝、滿載而歸。

Synopsiss

It is the fourth hour at the Nether River. Mist shrouds the river, and crimson spider lilies known as the flower of death on the opposite bank sway in the mist. Legend has it that once one crosses the Nether River, they bid goodbye to the mortal world forever. The Nether Realm, a colorful and vibrant world, as exotic as can be, is where souls stay before they go through reincarnation. Toward the end of their afterlife in the Nether Realm, resident souls will receive a Notification of Reincarnation. However, some of these residents might still have regrets and thus refuse to drink Meng Po's soup, which makes them forget their lives before they embark on their new ones. In such cases, Meng Po will arrange for them to visit Hostel Meng Po, where the staff have to resolve their guests' regrets within seven days.

Wan Qian-fan, the new manager of Hostel Meng Po, cannot accept his death by accident just as he got to the highest point of his career. Thus, he requested that the King of the Nether Realm restore him to life. The King puts him in charge of Hostel Meng Po and tells Qian-fan that if he manages to get five five-star reviews in the hostel's customer satisfaction survey, he will give Qian-fan a Revival Application Form. Faced with no other choice, Qian-fan reluctantly takes over the running of the hostel, where he finds himself having to lead a group of odd and playful employees in the quest to fulfill their guests’ wishes.

One day, Fang Su-qiu, the leader of the Underworld Opera Troupe, checks into Hostel Meng Po. During her stay in the hostel, she suddenly vanishes without a trace, leaving behind nothing but a book titled A Lost Actress. Qian-fan deduces that her soul has entered the book. Thus, he borrows the Soul Finder from the Bureau of Magical Treasures and enters the book in his search for Su-qiu. It turns out that it is a book of opera songs written for tales of swordsmen. The world within the book is one of wuxia, a world in which martial artist vigilantes uphold their brand of chivalry and justice.

Qian-fan transforms into Qing ming, one of the wuxia vigilantes in the book's world. He teams up with Liu Xing, a younger female disciple of his master who dresses as a man. Together, they fight injustice in the wuxia world. Soon, Qian-fan realizes that Liu Xing is actually Su-qiu, who has entered this world and is now in so deep that she has forgotten who she really is. Qian-fan has to find a way to bring her back to the real world...



Words from the Artistic Director

Tang Mei-yun

“Heaven and Earth, a temporary lodging for all life; time and tide, a traveler passing through centuries. Our short lives are like a dream; how many moments of joy do we really have?” Welcome to

Tavern by the Lethe 2024

! This is a brand new story and a new journey for us all. This year, Tang Mei Yun Taiwanese Opera Company is bringing back a classic — the award-winning IP TV production that won the 2022 Golden Bell Creative Award! This production, which brings together modern theatrical arts, traditional Taiwanese opera, and a semistaged play is a new form of musical, uniquely made in Taiwan.

If you still remember our 2018 theatrical version of

Tavern by the Lethe

, then, I implore you this: imagine yourself having a bowl of Meng Po's soup before the gongs announce this production's opening. In this way, you might experience

Tavern by the Lethe: A Lost Actress

with a fresh pair of eyes! In this production, there is a play within the play, as well as one beyond. At first glance, these acts seem to function independently. However, upon closer scrutiny, one will see that they share a fundamental affinity, which is embodied in the many clever details embedded in the story. The multilayered complexity of the play intersects with the beauty of the stage, resulting in a truly innovative production. The complexity of the characters creates beauty, the production's casting is itself an art, and the multiple timelines present huge challenges. What this means is that the 2024 version of

Tavern by the Lethe

seeks to showcase a story with more depth and sensory engagement than its TV counterpart!

Whether a play is good depends on whether its key elements are tackled well. A good play should begin with a good story, which can then be expanded to include discussions on other elements such as the mode and form of the performance. Only with these considerations in mind can the production team begin its quest for the right actors, music, costumes, stage design, and so on. As the team masters the rhythms of the various components working in sync, they can then fine tune the operatic elements such as singing patterns, speech skills, danceacting, and dance like martial arts effectively, so that they might merge seamlessly with the rest of the performance. We see Taiwanese opera as a vast horizon, not a single-track production. The road ahead is still long, and the sea of possibilities is boundless; there is no reason why we should limit ourselves. Many thanks to the three major performing arts centers in Taiwan, namely the National Theater and Concert Hall, National Taichung Theater, and National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts. Special thanks to the Artistic Directors Liu I-ju, Chiu Yuan, and Chien Wen-pin for their support and guidance. My appreciation to Director Dai Chun-fang, who worked on the previous iteration of Tavern by the Lethe with me. My heartfelt thanks also go out to Playwrights Chen Jian-xing and Liao Pei-yu, Set Designer Wang Shi-xin, Visual Designer Wang Yi-sheng, Lighting Designer Qiu Yi-xin, Costume Designer Huang Wenying, Music Composer and Arranger Ji Junda, Vocal Arranger Chen Xin-han, Martial Arts Choreographer Dai Li-wu, and Dance Choreographer Zhang Yi-jun. This team has weathered many trials with me, and we are still sticking together in the pursuit of our shared dream!

Tang Mei Yun Taiwanese Opera Company is never worried about being defined; our only worry is that people define us in only one way! Undaunted by obstacles, Tang Mei Yun Taiwanese Opera Company perseveres on our chosen path. It is only after we create something that we can multiply its value, just like how a “one” needs to exist first before all the zeros that come after value-adds to it. It is only when we forget the rules that we can turn impossibilities into possibilities – the possibilities of your dreams. Many thanks to opera veteran Tang Wen-hua for our renewed collaboration. My utmost gratitude to my great friends Cai Zhen-nan, Fang Xin, Xu Fu-kai, and Fang You-xin for accepting this challenge. Not to forget my long-time opera buddies Xu Xiu-nian (also known by her stage name Sister Xu) and Chen Feng-gui (also known by her stage name Xiao-Mi), as well as Tangers, the junior members of my company. Thank you all for “running the hostel” with me!

At Hostel Meng Po, everyone is invited to join in our songs. After all, music is what gives time meaning. May all of us, whether we are on stage or in the audience, get in sync and hop onto the time machine as one, so that we might traverse these theatrical multiverses together. May our shared love of Taiwanese opera shine bright, and may each of us step out of the theater with our hearts full.
