Intro
Video Call Practise - the Video
►[TW/JP] Lin Zi-Heng, Wu I-Ting, Chiu Chui-Lung
►Video ►Mandarin
"How do we believe that through the lens, the image displayed on the screen is real and convincing? Do we believe it because the image on the screen is the reflection of our own emotion?"
Video call practice tries to apply director Coppola's Live Cinema concept and method to further explore more possibilities of how Live Cinema could be achieved.
The play begins with an oversea video call.
Lin Zi-Heng, Wu I-Ting, Chiu Chui-Lung met during the making of Chiu's directorial film The Brighter Day in 2013. Later in 2018, the three participated Close to You Festival with their theatre play 年越し蕎麦, which portraits the ambiguous scene of romance and reality in a Japanese bar in Linsen area.

TheTube
►[NL]TAMTAM objektentheater Marije van der Sande & Gérard Schiphorst
►Object animation & Theatrical installation
►The scenes are without language, the explanation of how we made it will be in English
It took a pandemic to make TAMTAM, known as creators of alternative ways of showing visual theatre, to invent The Tube. A one-person miniature theatre that offers a truly intense and personal 1 on 1 experience in a highly condensed form.
The core of the idea is a 2.60m long tube with a 25cm diameter.
On one side of the Tube a miniature stage with light and sound in which we show wordless visual scenes of about 2 minutes. On the other side, the spectator who can see the scene from a safe distance.
But watching through The Tube has the effect of a looking glass and the soundtrack also comes through the tube, which enhances the experience.
The spectator is completely focused and immersed by the images and the sounds and tends to forget the rest of the world. They watch small stories, specially made for The Tube with each its own specially composed soundtrack. Titles like: Roadtrip, Tango, The nest, Seaview, Opera or Twins appeal to the imagination.
Even in non Covid times it remains a unique experience that might just be more intense than a real-life performance in a theatre.
TAMTAM objektentheater is an internationally touring theatre company from The Netherlands that produces visual theatre performances since 1979. Their shows have been performed in 34 countries all over the world, from New York to Kuala Lumpur and from Rio de Janeiro to Johannesburg.
They make image-based theatre without text. A very personal and peculiar style of objecttheatre in which found objects, images, sound and music, light, video and inventive stage-technology tell the story. They look for talents in the found objects that want to appear in their shows. They hold auditions to choose the best object actors.
Gérard Schiphorst and Marije van der Sande are the founders, artists and performers.They are well known for their esthetic style, subtle humor and originality and have won awards in various countries.

BADADA
►[Israel] Shay Persil
►Puppet ＆ Object ►non verbal
An intimate puppet and object theatre performance for adults that invites a glimpse into the routine life of Badada - a woman who lives alone in her small apartment, and has no contact with the outside world. From that she creates a relationship with the house itself and its objects, nourishing and nourished by an inner world, anxious and rich in imagination. Badada's symbiotic relationship with the home evokes a rethinking of mental and physical freedom of movement and highlights the gap between what we see and hear and what we experience and imagine.
