Nuo is a culture. Carrying the original breath, it goes through the dust of history and remains alive till today. It reveres the mysterious heaven through the Nuoji ceremony, and celebrates humanity through Nuoshen dance. Nuo mask is a totem in China, which signifies the unity of heaven and people through Taoism. Putting on the Nuo Mask, you become a God, taking it off, you become a man. Nuo mask is the door leading you to another world.
The play showed the beginning of the World, creation of life through Yin and Yang, beginning of humankind and celebration of life.
