《水性漾起的淚花》

About the show

Four short pieces built around the motif of water, tracing women as they flush red in the heat, drift in and out of focus in the mist, embrace themselves in warmth, and move freely through water. In "鴛鴦邊爐一個蓋," a mother discovers her daughter's sex toy; the two face off over a bubbling hotpot in a cramped kitchen. In "沒有腳趾的女孩," a girl too ashamed to reveal her hidden secret grows insecure in love, until one day at a mountain hot spring, she dives underwater to spy on others, their floating bodies each bearing unimaginable traits. In "浴室的降雨雲," the bathroom becomes a greenhouse, where countless plants cultivated in her home wrap tightly around her solitary life. In "泡羊胎水的幽靈," a woman who was born lacking amniotic fluid becomes pregnant again; the fetus lost in the past returns as a ghost, lingering in her womb, exchanging silent words with the new life beginning there. 《水性漾起的淚花》is written and directed by 張雁華, co-starring 陳家恩 and dirtywork. Water threads through the four pieces as a guiding line, piecing together women's ebb and flow across body, desire, intimacy, and loss. The performance has no assigned seating; the front two rows are floor cushions, where audience members must sit on the ground and remove their shoes—socks and light clothing are recommended. The show runs approximately 90 minutes and is suitable for ages 6 and up.
