The Golden Fly Bomb

Zhiwei Wu

In a surreal 24-hour journey, a young woman's desperate search for meaning unfolds through a kaleidoscope of reality and imagination. Working as a hostess in a nightclub, she navigates broken family ties, toxic relationships, and a mind that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary - where humans morph into horses.
This multimedia theatre piece blends live performance with animation, projection mapping, and original music. As our protagonist crafts her own "Golden Fly Bomb" - a whimsical remedy for her existential crisis - she discovers that the urge to destroy everything might just be the key to survival.
A darkly humorous yet deeply moving exploration of how we keep living when everything seems impossible. Through stunning visuals, physical theatre, and original songs, this show asks: In a world we cannot change, how do we find the strength to go on?
