Highlights

Actors' Family presents the play reading series of their classic musical "Beautiful Day."

Through an intimate reading format, the play explores the profound meanings of life, love, and time hidden within everyday existence.

Program

"Tonight, the moonlight is full of smiles, leaving words for the people of the world." "Beautiful Day" delicately illustrates a protagonist's realization of life's value through the lens of a seemingly ordinary life. The story follows the journey of the protagonist, "Mei-lai," from birth, growth, and love, to marriage and the end of her life, capturing her longing to relive just one single day. This is not just a performance, but a deep reflection on the essence of existence.
