“We’ll see each other here again in three months!” On March 20th, an event was held in Chengdu to launch officially “Stolen Heart”, the world’s largest immersive play co-produced by Usunhome and China’s most influential avant-garde director Mr. Meng Jinghui. The over 8000 square meters of Usunhome Avant-garde Theatre will be divided into 168 performing spaces that will witness Chengdu’s whimsical and romantic exploration of immersive play.
Following Meng Jinghui’s Dead Waterside Mermaid, China’s first immersive play, this will be the director’s second audacious work whose stage is a river meandering through audience. It will be a multi-faceted aesthetic integration of multiple art forms such asacting, visual art, acoustic art, photography, multimedia, music and modern dancing.“Stolen Heart” is also a unique avant-garde gift for Chengdu.
At the event, a performance characteristic of Meng Jinghui’s style gradually immersed the attendees within the performance itself. The moment the play’s name board was unveiled, all lights were on. Mr. Qiu Wei, Chairman of Usunhome Group and of Usunhome Cultural Tourism, and Director Meng Jinghui stepped into the spotlight together and greeted loud and clear, “Good evening, Chengdu!” The spot became immediately full of cheers and claps.
“We dedicate this play to Chengdu.”, said Meng Jinghui. With China’s best actors and all manner of techniques like the use of installation art and performance art, “Stolen Heart” will be a piece of avant-garde theatre that defies imagination. Chairman Qiu Wei sincerely hoped that it would attract not only all those present at the event, but also more Chengdu locals, theatre lovers and hopefully every ordinary person with memorable life stories so that all would become part of this great production, a hymn to Chengdu.
This great event that goes down in China’s theatre history was witnessed by over 300 guests and theatre fans, and a dozen media outlets like People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, Guangming Daily, Sichuan Daily, West China Metropolis Daily and Sichuan TV.
