The immersive multi-dimensional space drama "Only Zhouzhuang" aims to immerse the audience in a "journey of encounter with oneself" in the form of a dream within a dream. The play breaks the pattern of traditional drama and stage performance, explores the issues of space and time in deconstruction and reconstruction, and integrates Song Dynasty aesthetics with multi-dimensional technological creativity, leading the audience to travel beyond the three-dimensional space, so as to gain a super-sensory experience of emotion and soul.
The story tells about a young traveler named Zhou He who comes to Zhouzhuang for a gathering of astronomy enthusiasts. In his dream, he witnesses the dreams and life of a Song Dynasty man of the same name in Zhouzhuang 900 years ago, and has a dialogue across time and space with many Zhouzhuang celebrities. In 70 minutes, you will enter the dreams of contemporary Zhou He and Song Dynasty man Zhou He, follow the four chapters of "Old Dreams, Paintings, Expeditions, and Finding Paths", enter the world of Song Dynasty aesthetics, enter the quaint water town 900 years ago, and witness the respective pursuits of old friends in Zhouzhuang.
Old Dream: Welcome to Zhouzhuang! At an offline gathering of astronomy enthusiasts, you met a young man named Zhou He, who casually picked up a copy of "Zhouzhuang Town Chronicles" at the front desk to read before going to bed. That night, all the guests of the hotel miraculously entered the same dream, and you entered Zhou He's dream. With the sound of rain outside the window, Zhou He read a book in his dream and returned to the water town nine hundred years ago, meeting a Song Dynasty man with the same name as himself. Come, let's dream together. Highlights: A full-scale immersive drama performance in the immersive dome light and shadow space brings you a shocking visual enjoyment.
Into the Painting: Dreams within dreams, you walk along with a lantern, following Zhou He's footsteps, and enter the dream of the Song Dynasty man of the same name. The dream is full of memories, including the banquets and prosperity of Tokyo in the past, the acquaintance and separation with the court singer Tao Xi, and the promises and entrustments of others. When he woke up from the dream, Zhou He, a Song Dynasty man, had an answer to the question of whether to stay or go, "There are beautiful scenery outside the Jiangnan water town, why do you stay here alone, brother Zhou?" Just because "this place where my heart is at peace is my hometown" Highlights: The official court musicians who played the twelve drums and whistles were restored on site, and the court dancers of the Song Dynasty danced against the backdrop of light and shadow, showing the prosperous court scene.
Going to war: Zhou He, a modern man, chases the light in the fragments of time, witnessing the half-life story of Zhou He, a Song Dynasty man, who stayed in Zhouzhuang. In order to protect the water town, he sent his son Zhou Xi to the army. He looked at the sword under the lamplight while drunk, and dreamed of blowing the horn in the camp. Zhou Xi was brave and good at fighting, and led 300 warriors from Zhouzhuang to join the anti-Jin team heading north. Highlights: Take a "warship" and be in the fierce anti-Jin battle, and feel the war atmosphere of wind and rain, thunder and lightning, and artillery.
Finding the way: The ginkgo tree planted by Zhouzhuang elders to commemorate the warriors who fought against the Jin Dynasty has become a sacred tree for the people of the water town to pray for blessings. In the dream, time and space disappear, and the modern man Zhou He takes over the guide fish lantern and waits under the ginkgo tree. Zhang Han, Zhou Digonglang, Shen Wansan...old friends from the village come into the dream and tell the feeling of "only this Zhouzhuang". At dawn, each of us wakes up from our own dream, recalling this "lucid dream" where we once met each other. I hope that all the white alienation can at least meet and embrace in dreams. Highlights: Hundreds of blessing lotus lanterns on the sacred tree illuminate the lost people one by one, which is both real and dreamlike.
