The Taiyuan Puppet Theatre Company was established in 2000. It specializes in integrating eastern and western cultures, merging the spirits of avant-garde visual theater and traditional puppetry in their thought-provoking puppet shows. Producer Lin Jing-fu and Sinologist/Puppeteer Lo Bin gathered a group of artists/writers from different ethnic and artistic backgrounds to produce their scripts and performances. They require the scripts to be rich in meaning that will hold up to in-depth exploration. Everything, the script, direction, and production, even the puppets and music for each play have to be original. In this way, they have infused a new vitality into traditional Taiwan puppet theater. In recent years, they have also succeeded in promoting Taiwan puppet theater onto the international stage, as well as introducing European and American puppet troupes to Taiwan to promote cross-cultural communication.
