They fell in love at the first sight, had children, and traveled around the world happily ever after. |
Our Feeling
“I feel that Mr. Chubby the mouse is very brave, and he knows clearly what he wants. Everyone should search for his true self, not eating and sleeping all day long. This show not only teaches as some morals, but also gives us a good time. I wished having chances to watch such a great show again. We've really gained a lot from the show, even though we couldn't stay to watch other shows or the fairytale march.”said Fun Carnival Team member Kitty.
“After watching this great singing and acting, and lovely and romantic show, I learned that we should have dreams, and we should pursue our dreams bravely. The whole play is just surprising. The performance is vivid and funny. The canvas on the stage is tiny but varying. We chatted to performers and Dutch directors, and took a picture together. They told us that they are going to perform this show to many other schools around Taiwan, but we are the luckiest to see the debut.”said Fun Carnival Team member Emily.
“This funny and creative drama taught me that we should seek our dreams without fear. Life becomes colorful after the value is found. Besides, I think the background is very creative and innovative. The narrator even makes the show better. We met the directors and staff afterwards, and knew that they will bring this show to rural areas around Taiwan. What a great team! ”said Fun Carnival Team member Judy. |
