Dear Editor, Taisiderata Blog City:
I know I am in the minority here when I state that I really liked the
musical "Dreamers," but to be honest, I watched the show on TV the
night it was performed in Taichung, and I loved
every minute of it.
Call me sentimental, call me romantic, call me late for dinner, but I loved the show and found myself laughing in some parts and
tearing
up in other parts and even standing up in my living room at home at
the end and applauding. I don't understand why so many critics from
both the green camp and the blue
camp wrote such scathing reviews in newspapers and magazines. It seems
some members of the DPP hated the show for their own reasons, and it
seems that some members of the KMT
also hated the show for other reasons. I don't understand what all the
fuss is all about. I watched a powerful musical drama unfold that
night and I was touched. Sometimes art trumps
politics, not always, but sometimes. In this case, I give "Dreamers" a
thumbs up, two thumbs up!
I came to the show on television as a non-Taiwanese man wanting to
know more about
Taiwan history, and I feel the show delivered the goods and gave me my
money's worth. By juxtaposing two stories and interweaving
the ideas of the old generation and young people in one rousing
musical show, I felt Stan Lai did a very good job. The music was
superb, the sets were eye-catching, the songs were lovely (even if a
bit
sentimental) and the drama going on on stage was very easy to follow
with the extremely well-written English subtitles that appeared on my
TV screen. Whoever wrote the subtitles in English deserves a round of
applause as well.
Okay, I am in the minority here, but I, for one, was captivated. For
me, the touching melodies and the plot that mixed history and family
dramas into a moving two-hour show gave me a nice sentimental feeling.
Sometimes sentiment is okay.
I didn't watch the show from the point of view of any political party,
and I had no idea at the time about the shady finances or the
backstage dealings involved. I came to show
as a non-Taiwanese TV viewer and stood up and applauded at home when
it was over. It was that good. I was that touched by the finale and
the entire show. Bravo, Stan Lai!
By portraying how young people of two different generations in Taiwan
pursued their dreams, the musical worked for me. Was I the only one
who applauded? Did I see the
same show the critics saw? Maybe not.
Sincerely,
Art Fann,
Kenting

When 羅苳公 and 林榕 Were Married in an Enchanted Yilan Forest (draft text)
draft text
很久以前, 阿嬤說「某天, 有隻小鳥兒嘴裡卸著的兩顆種子不小心掉落在森林裡, 這兩顆種子逐漸發芽長大, 樹根和枝葉彼此
交錯纏繞在一起, 成雙成對. 其中一棵是榕樹, 另一棵則是秋楓.」
這件事是發生於 1920年 日本殖民時期的宜蘭縣羅東鎮. 可想而知, 這兩棵神奇的「夫妻樹」一起歷經多少春夏秋冬,
兩棵樹要結婚了, 一段奇蹟的姻緣.
兩棵樹要結婚了, 一場森林裡的盛宴.
森林裡的動物, 昆蟲, 花草都歡歡喜喜地來湊熱鬧囉!
喜帖廣發給森林裡的所有村民, 日期訂於11月12日. 下面就是發給蝴蝶家族的邀請函, 內容是這樣的:
羅苳公 and 林榕

……等等. 七彩的蝴蝶紛飛. 好不熱鬧.
在這充滿快樂的森林裡, 羅苳公和林榕婆高高聳立在一片蔚藍的晴空之下, 白雲在天上也發出燦爛的微笑, 看著羅苳公和林榕
婆這對夫妻樹恩愛相擁將近 90年, 終於在羅東這座靜謐繁茂的叢林中要結婚了.

When 羅苳公 and 林榕 Got Married in Yilan
A new folk tale from Taiwan imagined by ''Biko Lang''
translated by ______
illustrations by ______
FIRST TWO PAGES IN COLOR LOOK LIKE THIS -----
羅苳公 and 林榕 held a happy wedding party
for all the trees and flowers and animals in the forest of Ludong,
they had already been fused together -- like this! (............double
truck 2 pages artwork here..........) -- for over 90 years!
AND THEN STORY CONTNUTES
Long ago, or so ''Amah'' says, a little bird dropped two seeds in the
forest one day and they began growing together as a double tree, a
fused tree, entwined in each other's roots and branches. One seed was the seed
of a banyan tree and the other seed was the seed of an autumn maple tree.
This happened
in Ludong in Yilan County in 1920 during the Japanese colonial period.
As you can imagine, this amazing tree has seen many summers and
winters, vibrant springtimes and melancholy falling leaves of autumn!
Two trees, one miracle! Two trees, one wedding!
Two trees, and a party for all the animals and flowers
and insects of the forest!
The wedding invitations went out to all the denizens of the forest.
The date was set for November 12. Here is what one invitation, to the
butterfly families of Yilan, looked like:
Dear Butterflies of Ludong,
You are cordially invited to attend our wedding at the Gurgling Brook
Bridge on November DATE. Please wear your finest colors and be prepared
for the best wedding party you ever attended.
Sincerely,
羅苳公 and 林榕
And what a wedding it was: deer and fox, squirrels and birds,
butterflies and Formosa Landlocked salmon, Formosa Bear and even
snails and slugs and sengaga! Horses and cows and pigs and goats!
Butterlies of all the colors of the rainbow!
And under a clear blue sky with white clouds high above smiling down
on the happy forest, 羅苳公 and 林榕 --fused togther
already for 90 years, got married ...in quiet wooded grove in Ludong.
Rejoice! Rejoice! The bees and the mice and the crows and the fish all
rejoiced, and you could even see the happy fish wriggling their fishy
tails in the blue waters below the Gurling Brook Bridge.
The Mayor was there, and the Superintendent of the Foresty Bureau, and
over 100 movie stars and TV stars and pop singers from Taipei came to
the party as well. It was and always will be remembered as THE FOREST
WEDDING OF THE CENTURY!
Said the Ox who was officating at the wedding:
"Do you, 羅苳公, take 林榕, as your wife today?
I do.
And do you, 林榕, take 羅苳公 as your husband today?
I ...I.....I do!
I now pronounce you Husband Tree and Wife Tree, fused together now and forever,
congratulations to you both, and long live the beautiful Ludong Forest
of Yilan County!"
And when the wedding ceremony was over, everyone raised a small glass
of mountain dew to congratulate the happy couple, and said GAN BEI and
LO LAT.
This is not the End. This is very beginning of a new chapter in
the life of the fused trees of Ludong Forest.
