The Rite of Spring

Wu is the most ancient dancer in China. She is a medium for humans to communicate with the Heaven and the Earth. In ancient times, Wu managed the Earth, pushed the clouds and the moon, faced the sky and fixed the ground. In the face of ancient instincts of people and animals, it was “survival for the fittest”. Wu settled disputes and differences, led their clans in dancing, and worshipped the goddess of spring to pray for prosperity and safety.

Following the wheel of time, watching snakes and birds fighting, wu realized the wisdom of Tai Chi. People began to search for the mysteries of the Heaven, the Earth and human beings in the Universe, trying to check on the actual status of the opponents. Wu gave away wisdom to the Earth while humans greedily grasped the rewards with giving love and care in return. Wu died in loneliness with a broken heart. The Nature called, reflecting on how to strike a balance between receiving and releasing.

In modern times, the choice is between Wu or technology, control command or love and unity. Benevolence can make the world a better place. Dancers and audiences dance the Tai Chi dance together in unison, wishing all a balance between the body and mind, harmony of the world and inclusion of all.
