Beating out magic rhythms from Taiwan, the U-Theatre’s performance conveys a mystical experience of existence. The New York Times describes: “There is a great and complex beauty to the drumming, sounds and silence and simple beats and intricate meshes of precisely articulated rhythms.” Founded in 1988, the U-Theatre, traveled and performed worldwide, dedicates to pursuing inner peace through exploration of the body and mind, fusing Chinese martial arts, drumming and meditation together with theatrical expressions.
