Abstract:
As an exemplar of transitional‐justice theatre in Taiwan, Dark Eyes Performance Lab’s Too Many Dreams in One Night aimed to repair a social wound but aroused debates over its use of immersive staging and torture instruments to reenact the political violence of the White Terror. The play foregrounded the impossibility of experiencing historical trauma through theatrical performance and, paradoxically, the necessity of employing metatheatrical devices to highlight such an impossibility.
