Taiwanese playwright Lai Shengchuan shares his insights into the integration of Eastern and Western cultures and cross-strait cultural exchanges. "Different cultures can collide with each other to create infinite possibilities and many thought-provoking thoughts, and ultimately reach some kind of spiritual consensus," he says.

"Theatre is a melting pot that combines all my interests, so I think it's worth a try," he adds. "I have a deep feeling that the term 'global village' is accurate, because the rapid development of communication and transportation has made everyone feel that the distance between each other has been greatly shortened"
