Installation provides space for dreamy show

"The play also grapples with themes of life and death, exploring how we confront our mortality. From Tang's writing to the essence of the original film, it feels very natural to discuss death, approaching it with a sense of ease," he says.

Performing within an art installation provides a unique experience for Wu.

"Song Dong's work is extraordinary: It crafts a dreamlike atmosphere while remaining firmly rooted in reality. Each piece of furniture is tangible and lived-in.

"The space is adorned with mirrors, creating an illusion that you are suspended in a dreamlike state, floating in a lake or drifting through space. It's genuinely magical, evoking anything we might imagine," he says.

"In such an environment, dreaming becomes both wonderful and exhilarating, as if a certain magic envelops you, expanding your thoughts and allowing you to become immersed in the performance."
