Position:

Co-Director, Leading Actress (Violet/Lady Purple)

Introduction:

Adapted from Angela Carter's The Loves of Lady Purple, the play follows Violet, a puppet created by Professor P. Under his control, Violet plays the role of the prostitute Lady Purple, performing a series of erotic shows that bring Professor P great wealth. However, after the 981st performance, Violet suddenly gained consciousness. In the end, she kills her creator in a fire, only to return to the brothel, as if guided by some predestined force. Through her physical performance, Violet conveys the mechanical nature of a puppet under control and the shift in perception from warmth to coldness as she regains free will. The play explores the struggles and power of women navigating multiple identities.
