Description of Our Community: Shengang is a small village near the sea, the hometown of waterfowl. People here raise fish and oyster for a living. Farmers grow onions and garlic which are the local famous specialty. Shengang is located in Changhua County, north across the Dadu River. It’s a place with numerous fiddler crabs, waterfowls, mole crickets shrimp (shrimp monkey). In order to protect them, many preservations have been set up here. As for culture, shengang Quanzhou drama has a long history, according to shengang chronicles. Quanzhou, Jin Zhu troupe has two hundred years of activity history. "Taiwan brandy bottle Troupe" founded in 2003, is the first performance team in Changhua County. Changhua County is also the first local government to support the troupe rooted in Shengang.

Project Description: Not just a "children" play. "Taiwan brandy bottle troupe" is the first performance team in Changhua County. It rooted in shengang Changhua County. Five founders from various fields: Zhang Lina, Chen Yijun, Wang Zhe Di, Zhang and Guo Yuemei (the head), they started the troupe in 2003 . They gathered together to build a dream of children theater and put into action during Flower Fair. It takes lots of work to run a theater. Children's drama seems easy to understand, but the process of how to express and perform a play needs great practice and training. The troupe business is anything but simple. The performers must have extraordinary enthusiasm and perseverance against all odds to overcome difficulties. We interviewed the chief and other members, and also involved in theater practice and their training to experience the theater operations
