Audience loves ‘Formosa’
When European sailors traveled thousands of miles and arrived at the island of Taiwan for the first time, they gave it the name “Formosa,” meaning “Beautiful Island” in Portuguese. Last Saturday, the Brandeis Undergraduate Taiwanese Student Association hosted “Love, Formosa,” a culture show that centered around the Taiwanese traditions of love and how they fit into the modern world. The show featured great performances, fun dating games and, of course, amazing food and Boba.
Performers Ignite the Night
The Vietnamese Student Association put on a excellent show last Thursday. The show was called “Brandeis by Night: 36 destinations,” because of the 36 guild locations in Hanoi, Vietnam. According to the event’s description, “the number 36 became iconic in representing the soul of the city. [Each guild is] famous for a different type of merchandise, such as gold, silver [and] cloth.” The event was held in Sherman Function Hall, which VSA lavishly decorated in the theme of Hanoi. The walls were decorated with lanterns and shrines as well as maps of the streets of Hanoi on the floor of the Hall, writing the street names on long strings of multi-colored tape.
‘One Foot Planted’ pushes boundaries
“One Foot Planted,” a new installation by artists Ayelet Carmi and Meirav Heiman, explores the relationship between women, the land of Israel and the gender politics that bind the two. The work, which consists of a series of videos, envisions a post-apocalyptic version of the Holy Land, in which its female inhabitants are forced to traverse the terrain on various obstacles that keep their bodies from making contact with the earth. Some of these women walk on stilts, while others walk with orbs beneath their feet. One woman even walks on her hands — which are on stilts. The journey is painstaking. For a rough visual reference, think of it as a slowed down version of “Mad Max: Fury Road.”
‘Arcadia’ exceeds expectations
“Our production highlights how women were and are treated in academia, and the footprint they leave behind for those you follow.” Sarah Salinger-Mullen’s ’19 director’s note rings true in her interpretation of Tom Stoppard’s “Arcadia.” The 1993 British play was produced by the Undergraduate Theater Collective March on 14-17 in the SCC Theater. The play takes place in one room of a country house, Sidley Park, during two different time periods separated by 200 years: the early 1800s and the present day.
