Toastmaster Kate Hsu invited golden ladies to see the Borrowing the Plantain Fan at Taipei EYE, only Lydia and I could make it this evening. It was an exciting and entertaining show full of martial arts scenes. After the show, we had a couple of photos taken with the leading actors, Monkey King and the Princess Iron Fan, to conclude a joyful and pleasant Chinese Opera evening.
Journey to the West (西遊記) is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. It was written by Wu Cheng-En and published in the 1590s during the Ming Dynasty. The novel is a legendary pilgrimage to India of the Buddhist monk during the Tang dynasty.
The Monkey King (孫悟空, the name means "Awakened to Emptiness") was born on Flower Fruit Mountain from a stone egg that forms from an ancient rock created by the coupling of heaven and earth. Being a master of the 72 methods of transformation, the Monkey King defeated the most powerful of demons on a long and dangerous journey into the unknown.
Borrowing the Plantain Fan was the story of the Monkey King’s encounter with the Princess Iron Fan. The Monkey King succeeded in borrowing the magic plantain fan to subdue the flames of the Fiery Mountains, to lead his master and fellow disciples over the Fiery Mountains.
