About the theatre:
Flying Group Theatre was founded by Pei-Yu Shih in May of 2004. In Chinese the name “flying group” is the homonym for “non-human”, which represents puppetry while also implying the place in which the artists who “fly” around freely in the theatre gather together. Flying Group Theatre aims to create artworks with the spirit of diversity and integration and challenge the traditionally accepted distance between performer and audience.
