WU-SHAN HUANG
Wu-Shan Huang, age 36, is widely recognized as one of the most talented performers of his generation in the genre of traditional Taiwanese puppet theater. He was trained in this hand puppet art by Taiwan’s most revered master, Tien Lu-Lee, who was featured in the well-known film Puppet Master by director Hou Hsiao-Hsien. As a member of the distinguished troupe, I-Wan Jan Puppet Theater, Mr. Huang has participated in government-sponsored tours to Europe, Asia, and the United States. A creative individual with a broad range of interests in the arts, Mr. Huang pursued graduate studies in theater at the Taipei National University of the Arts, receiving an M.F.A. degree in 2003. Observing the declining audience for traditional puppetry in Taiwan, he has created several original works that seek a balance between tradition and innovation. These include collaborations with dancers and choreographers, the development of a puppet theater version of Shakespeare’s Henry IV, and the creation of two original Hakka language puppet plays.

Shan Puppet Theatre (Le Théâtre de Marionnette de la Montagne) est l'une des seules troupes de marionnettes a jouer des spectacles traditionnels de gaine taïwanaise en langue hakka a Taiwan (la communauté hakka étant l’un des nombreux groupes culturels cohabitant a Taiwan). La gaine traditionnelle taïwanaise était originellement jouée en MinNan, dialecte chinois du Fujian, au sud de la Chine, mais nous avons eu l'idée originale d'incorporer la musique, la culture et l'histoire hakka dans notre répertoire. Nous espérons ainsi attirer plus de monde au théâtre (notamment la communauté hakka) et leur faire comprendre et apprécier la beauté de la marionnette traditionnelle.
Les spectacles de Shan Puppet Troupe sont inspires de l'opéra traditionnel hakka. Dans un futur proche, nous aimerions faire une tournée dans une majorité de villes et villages a Taiwan afin de nous rapprocher de nos spectateurs et de nous approcher de notre idéal: "Le théâtre est partout".
