| Summary: | "Ping Chong's four-part masterwork"--About the play. "After Sorrow is a dance theater work that features four separate-yet thematically related-solo dance theatre pieces performed by Muna Tseng. Based on biographical and autobiographical sources, After Sorrow examines the fragile place where personal histories intersect and are transformed into a universal truth. Using dance, spoken and recorded texts, live music and image, After Sorrow creates an imagistic picture of East-West relations, culminating in a portrait of Vietnam- after the French-after the Americans-after the war facing an inconclusive future. The first three pieces (L'Histoire Chinoise, Whispers of the Stone and 98.6: a convergence in 15 minutes) form a suite about loss and the obligations owed to family and friends; the fourth piece After Sorrow (Viet Nam) is about the legacy of war. 98.6 was a free standing chamber work which was integrated into After Sorrow"--pingchong.org. |
