Tai Gu Tales Dance Theatre presents the 2026 re-production of choreographer Lin Hsiu-wei's classic masterpiece, "Upanishads." Centered on themes of the seeker, four seasons, and reincarnation, this performance draws from Eastern philosophy to lead the audience on a spiritual journey through dance, nature, live music, and cuisine.
The performance begins in the outdoor natural gardens of the Banchiao Broadcast Station and moves into the indoor theatre, returning "man" to nature to rediscover the connection between the body, the land, and the inner soul in this highly digitized era.
