In July 2016, Typhoon Nepartak severely impacted Taitung, destroying the rehearsal room of the Company. Left with nothing, choreographer Bulareyaung Pagarlava brought the dancers to the seashore along the east coast to create a new dance piece. Dancers trod in mud and danced in the seawater to once again feel the earth and embrace the ocean and the stars. The blue sky and the azure sea of the east coast became a blue-and-white-striped stage canvas, of which restless young dancers roamed nimbly in and out, connecting themselves with nature.
The audience were lured into immersing themselves in the spirit of the ocean to feel the flow of the current in the limpid water. Colors is more a spontaneous response to heartwarming events in life than a regular dance piece. You might find yourself rediscovering or redefining your own beauty through this work of Bulareyaung Pagarlava.
Colors is the third production of the Company.
