最近不做戲

到底從小寶寶出生之後, 我們都在幹嘛了？

沒錯, 就是帶小孩,

make him BABY jew



BABY Napoleon



BABY Abraham




這麼簡單幾個字, 背後有莫大的辛苦阿, 怎麼會有母親可以一人把六個小孩帶大的？
我們是兩個人人仰馬翻的讓小孩隨叫隨到,,,我的媽媽咪呀~~~

17世紀 鄭成功與荷蘭人小丑面具 / 17th CENTURY DUTCH CLOWNs.

Although Ren Jian Bao puppet theater is officially on hiatus, we thought it would be fun to teach this workshop at the Chia Nan University in Tainan County. The students are going to go up to Taipei this month to participate in the big Dream Parade, and me and Yuchi helped them create their parade team. We made 9 big masks and a bunch of props. I've been reading up on Taiwan history, so the concept is based on local Tainan history--a team of giant head 17th century dutch clowns. They arrive in Tainan in 1624 and start doing what the 17th century dutch did best--build forts, bully the locals, buy and sell stuff, try to tax everyone they can, and teach their stupid religion to the aboriginals. Our big head dutch have a cow with them pulling a cart full of big blocks which they use to build a fort, and then Jheng Chenggong shows up and boots their asses outta here in 1662. We made all this stuff in just 8 days. I'm really proud of these kids--I taught them a lot of new stuff, using a lot of unfamiliar materials--they had never done anything like this before, and we really made some beautiful things and had a lot of fun. They are going to have a really strong parade team with lots of history and lots of shtick. Ja yo!

雖然我們搬家了,也不作戲, 不過前兩天剛結束一個工作坊,
幫助嘉南藥理大學的學生, 在短短短短短八天內,
設計了他們要去台北夢想嘉年華遊行的主題.
以台南歷史鄭成功趕跑荷蘭人為故事. 做了面具服裝等等.

很短ㄋㄟ, 才八天ㄋㄟ, 學生每天利用晚上到午夜做的,
而且他們完全沒有經驗, 第一次接觸玉米粉的魔力.
但很可愛不是嗎！？

NO SHOWS NOW!! BABY IS COMING SOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi. Maybe you were wondering what is going on with the Ren Jian Bao puppet theater. Well, we've taken a little hiatus. Me and Yuchen have moved down to Tainan City to have a baby. Here--I drew this picture about it:



There are a couple of things in the drawing that bear explanation. The chinese character on the sign with the arrow is nan which means south. And the caveman with the mohawk and the uke is speaking spanish--he's saying, "Baby, don't complain. You see--that's what happens to you for sleeping without panties. You pig!" Ha ha. Also note another thing about this drawing--check out how much Yuchen's titties have grown since she got pregnant! What luck! If I had known about this before I would have started knocking chicks up a long time ago. Listen, if you are lucky enough to have a nice girlfriend or boyfriend, why don't you get off your computer and go fuck now--without a condom. You can always come back and read this later.

So anyway, now me and Yuchi are enjoying life in Tainan City, and find ourselves very busy with lots of heavy nesting.

Meanwhile, Tomas, our favorite Mexican, has gone off to make giant puppets in france with a bunch of frenchmen. Fucking gabachos! Anyway, he's hoping to learn a lot of new skills from these guys, and we expect him back in March. We miss you, Tomas! Come back soon!

The baby will be popping out real soon, and then we'll have a new little puppeteer on our team. And we'll keep you posted on our new shows and activities as they come up.

各位朋友！

我們搬新家了！ （其實已經搬了非常久,自七月開始...）
人間包現在因為有新成員即將誕生（其實是有小寶寶其將誕生）,
所以我們短期內都不會有戲.

再會了！ 朋友！！

各位大人們, 早早把你的孩子送上床吧, 這是一場你從沒見過的偶戲.
Okay, parents--put the kids to bed. PG time is over. It's a puppet show like no other puppet show you've ever seen:

哭泣的女人 "La Llorona: The Weeping Woman"

結合墨西哥歷史文化與鬼故事的黑色喜劇.
Part Weird Mexican Ghost Story. Part historical black comedy.

一場愛的悲劇, 一個古老永恆的詛咒, 這一切, 是由西班牙大舉進軍殖民墨西哥所引起的.
A tragic tale of love, loss and eternal damnation, set against the backdrop of the Spanish conquest of Mexico.

在此要對保守又傳統的父母們提出警告:
以人間包的立場我們覺得這齣戲是適合全齡觀賞.不過再這齣戲裡包含了人偶暴力,人偶殺戮,人偶強暴,血腥,嘔吐.對墨西哥原住民文化的摧毀,還有說話不乾淨的豬.
We, the puppeteers of Ren Jian Bao feel this show is pretty okay for kids of all ages. But be forewarned: This show contains scenes of puppet on puppet violence, puppet murder, puppet rape, blood, puke, the destruction of proud indigenous cultures, and a potty-mouthed pig.

這場表演將由西班牙文,中文,與英文共同呈現, 只要你懂其中一種, 就可以懂全部.
This show is presented in Spanish, Chinese and English. If you speak any one of those languages this show is for you.

我們還有一人樂隊挑梁演出, 獨家運用14種樂器, 光是看他也很有趣:)
And our 14-piece one-man band is not to be missed. Seeing Kevin play the drums with his feet is already worth the price of admission.

演員/cast: Adam Ende.Tomas Edgar Luna Lopez,XiaoMo/但唐謨,YuChen/禹辰
樂手/musician: Kevin.
製作/Produce: 人間包偶戲院/RenjianBao Puppet theater

又有觀眾“落跑“ :o

前幾天，有對夫婦與他們的小孩很喜歡La Llorona這齣戲於是出資邀我們
去立人國小演出，有兩班的小朋友與他們的老師一起來觀賞. 他們的英文
老師是住在南非的白人. 戲才看到一半, 他們兩位就跑了, 據說臉上的神情
也不好看. 是看到哪一段呢, 是看到La Llorona被一位西班牙士兵強姦,
耶穌在一旁“顯靈“的那一段, 事後家長跟我說, 那兩位是虔誠的教徒, 且剛好
與歐洲殖民南非的情況相仿. 於是他們看不下去了......

；o

不過, 總之, 謝謝這對開明有趣的夫婦, 這位先生很有趣, 他是位婦產科醫生,
據說他太太有第一胎時, 他可是緊張的不得了, “每一天“都照超音波看自己
的小孩喔......

偶(嘔)戲欣賞(1).-The Copulating Mermaid of Venice, California

看完後, 可以有句很棒的title是:

I Love You Dead Bitch.

這齣戲正是我們之前在人間包小電影週放的影片之一,
是亞當在美國911那年後所作的秀,
well, it's nothing to do with 911 tough.

劇名叫 "在加州的威尼斯與美人魚相幹" -
故事依照 查爾斯.布考司基 的原著來演. 台灣也有出版, 這個短篇收錄在
“ 進去. 出來. 結束“ 裡. 戲裡的兩個酒鬼他們發現了一個女屍於是把她帶
回家@%..*&%.,我們分不清這個個故事到底是悲傷還是有趣, 不管如何, 當
這齣偶戲在西雅圖演出時幾乎被觀眾噓下台. 呴, 好像真的挺噁心的.

不過巧的是我書看得很少, 卻偏偏對這個短篇印象深刻,
我說這是個很悲傷的故事, Tony雖是個無賴卻懂浪漫也有真性情.

and this is Bukowski



it's a great photo, right?!

Modest Mouse 早期也有首歌叫Bukowski, 用斑鳩琴而不用電吉他真是好決定.
see parts of the lyrics:

Well see what you wanna see. You should see it all.
Well take what you want from me. You deserve it all.
