Event Detail

Takao Run Band from Taiwan

Takao Run Band was founded in 1997. For 18 years we have traveled around Taiwan like gypsies meeting many interesting people in rural villages who always inspire us. We add some elements of authentic Taiwan tradition like Temple Fair or Din-Tao into modern street dance, while collecting all the stories from our native tribes, Taiwanese Opera and local folk songs. We want to bring to the audience some individual experience when they are watching Takao Run’s Techno Prince’s performance. Takao Run is constantly invited to attend many prestigious festivals and cultural events in Taiwan.

This event is co-sponsored by the UC San Diego Taiwan Studies Lecture Series.
