Let’s Kau-puê
2023 Let's Kau-puê
Celebrating festivity of the land, this dynamic fusion of Taiwanese folk parade and circus showcases a vibrant feast teeming with rustic and unbridled flavors of local culture. Through the spectacle of the circus, the audience hears and sees a traditional form of mingling and bonding known as kau-puê.
Folk arts that bond and bring joy to people in festive celebrations are themselves the circus of the land. They are the wildflowers that spring from the earth and root deeply in the lives, land and imaginations of communities. The show blends contemporary circus, the folk art of religious parade, juggling and folk music.
