Description of Our Community: We live in Taipei City of Taiwan. ”U-Theatre”is an artistic team that is located next to our school. As ”U-Theatre” hopes to train more young students to succeed at this special art, so they set up the first training program “U-Theatre Art Performing Class" in their neighbor-Jingwen High School to recruit high school students who are interested in drum art. We feel happy and proud of being their neighbor.

Project Description: We would interview “U-Theatre”, a team of drummers that combines skill and Tao, From their daily activities, yearly schedules and training procedures, it could be deeply explored to understand why the Tao-skill combination is the goal of the "U-people's" life and creation. Their concentration and endeavoring just the drumming sound impacts our hearts. Their body rhythms also imprints our mind. Apart from the adult performers just like in the movie " War Drum", there are still some little performers who attend various kind of performances. It is all worthwhile to further understand and explore for these young performers.
