Milingan Ocean Music Theatre Introduction
"Miling'an" means "to tell stories" in the Paiwan language. It embodies the spirit of the ancestors, the land, and the mutual care between people, conveying the importance of humility, gratitude, and stewardship of the land to humanity today. Miling'an is not a single performance; each show serves as a connection between the past and the present, embodying both spiritual and material aspects. People from the Paiwan tribe, along with their songs and language, will continuously internalize the wisdom of their ancestors and life stories, linking them to contemporary societal thoughts and issues, allowing the stories of this land to be told and sung for generations. Led by Paiwan soul singer Ruis and producer Hu Jian, Ruis is the winner of the Best Vocal Performance Award in the Traditional and Arts category at the 15th Golden Melody Awards. The theater company has been operating the "Miling'an Musical Theater" in the Xindian area, integrating performing arts with indigenous culture. The "Miling'an Lakeside Musical" is regularly performed every Friday and Saturday at the Florence Resort Hotel (No. 3, Weidi, Wulai District, New Taipei City).
