“It began with an invitation from the Fulbright Program to spend a year in Taiwan and now an invitation for the audience to enter into the choreographer’s world: an invitation to dream, to wonder, to be innocent, to feel pain…to sacrifice, learn, re-learn, let go…to die, to live…”
This Invitation
I have for you this invitation,
Feel free to accept or decline.
I’d like for you to imagine,
Close your eyes, if you wish,
And imagine balloons raining down from the sky.
Balloons pouring endlessly,
Balloons of many colors,
Balloons filling the stage, and spilling over,
Balloons covering my ankle bones.
Close your eyes, if you wish,
I’d like for you to imagine.
Feel free to accept or decline,
I have for you this invitation.
一個邀請
我想給你一個邀請
接受或拒絕，請隨意
我想給你一個想像
如果你想, 請閉上你的雙眼
想像氣球如雨般不停從天空落下
想像多種顏色的氣球充滿並溢出我的舞臺
想像多種顏色的氣球充滿並蓋住我的腳踝
如果你想, 請閉上你的雙眼
我想給你一個想像
接受或拒絕，請隨意
我想給你一個邀請
