Stillwater Wanderer

"A train that never arrives; a farewell that transcends time."

💧 The collective memory of 1970s Taiwan
💧 A staged reading in a magical realism style
💧 Dedicated to all souls who never got to grow up—or grow old

Winter, 1973. On a freezing night.

Fourteen-year-old baseball-loving boy Wen-yang leaves his hometown, carrying the heavy baggage of past scars and future anxieties. An endless downpour strands him at the dim Yongjing Station, where he encounters Shu-jia—a mysterious woman in a cheongsam, endlessly whispering numbers to herself.

"Where are you? Where are you...?"

Suddenly, a pitch-black, windowless train hurtles through the storm, tearing a gaping shadow across the curtain of rain.

As the downpour blurs the line between reality and dreams, a frozen clock and a sealed wooden box begin to unearth the deepest secrets harbored in their hearts. Confronted with the scattered fragments of their lives, can they find an exit—before the rain stops?
