周先生與舞者們「舞蹈旅行計畫」三度出走
2013年三度出走巡演，以不搭台、不架燈的形式，讓舞蹈的繽紛與當地特殊景觀相互應和；
這一次，會在哪個城市遇見你??
2013年7/27-8/18在臺東，花蓮，宜蘭，臺北，演出16場

仍記得我第一次見到書毅時，好友曼菲跟我說：「書毅是一個非常特別的舞者，如果能堅持、有好的環境，書毅將是台灣未來舞蹈的希望。」
多年來，我看見書毅的堅持，但卻仍未看到台灣有好的舞蹈環境。不信，您問一下自己，您最近一次會「付費」看純舞蹈是什麼時候？
書毅開始一個偉大的實驗，他將舞蹈帶出劇場，讓我們在大街小巷、不特定的戶外公共空間中，也能感受到原來舞蹈一直在我們的生活中；而生命的美好，就在於巧合與偶遇。當您還在憂慮您的未來時，有一群舞者為了能讓自己的身體與心靈自由、為了提醒大家想跳舞的慾望，從幼稚園到現在仍一直在那裏。而這次，「周先生與舞者們」也將用「舞蹈旅行計畫」的演出，讓您分不清誰是舞者、誰是觀眾，一同體驗對舞蹈的感動。
台灣的美麗，往往不是大山大海，而是在日常生活中，所看不到的一種氣氛（如果說是友善，那又太矯情、自以為是）；也就是有許多人，很認真、很知足，不求回報的活在當下。
「周先生與舞者們」的舞蹈旅行，就是讓我們更加愛上台灣的原因之一！
請大家在自己的Facebook上互相邀約，去支持「周先生與舞者們」。是時候讓我們找回自己內心–那一個愛跳舞的小孩。

2013年7/27-8/18在臺東，花蓮，宜蘭，臺北，演出16場
一次電台訪問中，劉軒說：「周書毅，我覺得你是社會實驗家。」想當初，舞蹈旅行計畫的初衷真的很簡單，就是想「跳舞給你看」，想把英國得獎作品《1875拉威爾與波麗露》分享給更多人，於是走出劇場。2011-2012年，[周先生與舞者們]在臺灣5座城鎮，12個公共空間，巡演25場，以不搭台、不架燈的形式演出，讓舞蹈的繽紛與當地特殊景觀相互應和，至今已達萬人觀賞。
2013年前進東臺灣，慢城小鎮中，繼續創造不同風景。
所有場次自由入場，查詢請上FB搜尋周先生與舞者們

Dear Freda:
Great! I can see you are planning to schedule to come to Red Room on 9/21. 🙂
Lately, I am thinking how to leverage Taiwan’s unique strength to create jobs that can keep people like your children who have been educated abroad with great working experience at world class institute. Taiwan has a vast of human resources abroad ( the young and bilingual ). We need to tap into this pool of talent to create a 桃花源 ( a metaphor for Taiwan’s lifestyle, no judgment here. ) of our own. If you read “About Ping Chu” at the top of my blog closely, you will read this
” Now he focuses on creating a business/revenue model that will attract these talented people who want to make a life, not just make a living. ”
This is what’s on my mind long time ago. Taiwan government needs to deregulate foreigners working permit or immigration policy and to encourage these foreigners to start up their business here. These foreigners will encourage the world entering to Taiwan.
These foreigners ( first generation or second generation immigrant ) will create more jobs for Taiwan’s youth. It has been proved through out history that immigrant with high potential usually will create more jobs than those who were born and raise in their native country It is called immigrant entrepreneurism. ( Apple, Facebook, eBay, Google, Yahoo, Kiva, Kickstarter, Coursera…all are founded by immigrant or second generation immigrants.)
I recently get to know a few brilliant HBS ( Harvard Business School ) MBAs. Unfortunately, they all decided to go to Shanghai since there is no high paid and globally challenging jobs here. I told them I agree with them that they should go to Shanghai and tough it out when they are young and ambitious. If I were them, I would do the same: go to Shanghai and work with world class company. However, I would remind them to limit their time in China to 5 years. Please come back to Taiwan and become an entrepreneur. The start up cost in Taiwan is still very small. The market is refined enough to experiment high value added venture. Taiwan needs entrepreneurship to leverage what we can offer to the world. Small but fiercely competitive in the world market.
We also need people like you to be the mentor for these young people to share your experience in living abroad and the new values that Chinese culture needs to cultivate.
Taiwan needs more cutting edge entrepreneurs who can bring the world to Taiwan, not just bring Taiwan to the world.
Love,
Ping
yes, yes, i hear you. i totally believe what you said is true.
when i saw Gene early this year, we talked about this too.
Taiwan is a place to celebrate life and to live the living.
i am going to taste this when i come 9/5 to 9/25.
see you then.
i am happy for you.
Dear Freda:
I have not met a single long time ( over one year ) international visitor or resident who does not fall in love with Taiwan, even they have lived in Bali, Singapore, HK, Bangkok, Shanghai, Beijing or even Tokyo. It is this Ren Qing Wei ( 人情味 ) that we take for granted attracts people from all over the world.
台灣的美麗，往往不是大山大海，而是在日常生活中，所看不到的一種氣氛（如果說是友善，那又太矯情、自以為是）；也就是有許多人，很認真、很知足，不求回報的活在當下。
We are working hard to make Taiwan an even better place to live for creative people from all over the world.
I am one of those people who believe that art can change the world.
Taiwan is calling you.
Ping
wish i could see this.
