2024玩聚場藝術節 Play Arts Festival——極限NUMBER ONE All the Way to NUMBER ONE

※活動皆為免費參加。 All events are free to attend.

藝術節還能做什麼？ What else can an art festival do?

除了告訴大家藝術多美好之外，一定還有很多事情能做的吧。2024年有什麼事情能做，或是還有什麼事情沒做的呢？適逢四年一度的奧運，如果把奧運作為主題，搭配玩聚場一直以來貫徹的「開放、活力、創造」，是否能撞出不同的火花？

在奧運官方格言中，「更快、更高、更強」是各項選手們不停努力的目標。但就藝術工作者來說，我們能「比」些什麼？或許我們無法比出勝負高下，但我們常挑戰極限：挑戰表演能力的極限、作品的極限、議題的極限、藝術的極限。

如果大家一起來挑戰極限的話，會是個怎樣的風景呢？

本次玩聚場將以奧運精神作為延伸發想，以「挑戰極限」為主題，用各種形式「玩」起來。每位創作者將選定一個「最⋯⋯」的形容詞，並用各自專注的形式對選定的主題進行詮釋或挑戰。藉由現代奧運發起人Pierre De Coubertin在1936年所提出的信念：「奧運會重要的不是勝利，而是參與」，積極地讓觀眾在玩耍之中一同參與，並在自己長期關注的議題中，藉由CLAB開放創新的平台得到更多發展的可能性。

三缺一劇團、娩娩工作室，與陳家聲工作室要擷取生活所見，詮釋最日常、最神秘，與最恐怖的故事；創作者李祐緯、嘎造・伊漾、以及周翊誠將延續個人所專注的主題，以最LONELY、最沒差，與最邪惡為引，直探議題核心；北部綜藝能工作室、不可無料劇場，與煙花宇宙數位音像工作室將要挑戰自己的極限，用最敬業、最有機、最原創三個最高級形容詞，試圖和不同類型的觀眾進行最直接的互動體驗；蘇瓦那與慢島劇團也帶來各自的拿手好作品，分享最自由和最重要的那些小事。最後，劇場PODCAST節目Intercomパイ與演員的自我修養也將在空總園區內，為各位帶來一整天不停歇的相關活動。

Besides showcasing the beauty of art, there must be many other things an art festival can achieve. What can we do in 2024, or what have we yet to accomplish? Given that 2024 is an Olympic year, what if we use the Olympics as a theme and incorporate the principles of “openness, vitality, and creativity” that Play Arts has always upheld? Could this create a new spark?

The official motto of the Olympics is “Faster, Higher, Stronger”, which represents the unceasing efforts of athletes. But as artists, what can we compete in? Perhaps we cannot compete for victory, but we constantly challenge our limits: the limits of performance ability, the limits of our works, the limits of issues, and the limits of art itself.

What kind of scene would it be if we all challenged our limits together?

This Play Arts Festival will use the spirit of the Olympics as an extension of our idea, focusing on the theme of “Challenging Limits”. Each creator will choose a superlative adjective and interpret or challenge their chosen theme in their own focused form. Inspired by the belief proposed by Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympics, in 1936: “The important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part”, we will actively engage the audience in playful participation. Through C-LAB’s open and innovative platform, creators will find more possibilities for the issues they have long been concerned with.

One Player Short Ensemble, Myan Myan Studio, and Chen Jia-sheng Studio will extract and interpret stories that are the most everyday, the most mysterious, and the most terrifying; creators Li You-wei, Kacaw.Iyang, and Zhou Yi-cheng will continue their focused themes, using the most LONELY, the most indifferent, and the most evil as leads to delve into the core of their issues; Beibu Zone, BIU Theatre, and Endospace will challenge their limits with the most dedicated, the most organic, and the most original, aiming for the most direct interactive experiences with different types of audiences. Suana Emuy Cilangasay and Slowisland Theatre will also bring their masterpieces, sharing the most free and the most important small matters. Finally, the theatre podcast Intercomパイ and Actor’s Self-Cultivation will provide a full day of nonstop activities in the TAF Zone.

期待觀眾們能在這些極限挑戰當中，看見表演藝術更多元的樣貌；也期待這些創作在觀眾的參與之下，能持續在每個未來的展演現場持續發酵，讓這無邊的藝文之路上，有奮發向前的順風一同陪伴前行。

We hope that audiences will see the diverse forms of performing arts through these ultimate challenges and that these creations, with audience participation, will continue to ferment in every future performance venue, accompanied by a favorable wind on the boundless road of arts and culture.
