Introduction |
In 2008, the senior class of the Tunghai Department of Foreign Languages and Literature performed The Mousetrap by Agatha Christie. This play, which has been praised as one of the greatest murder mysteries in British theater, had its world premiere at the Royal Theatre in London in 1952 and has been in continuous production in the West End of London ever since. A large and enthusiastic team of some 25 students from both the 1st and 2nd Divisions came together and executed to perfection all aspects of the production process: play selection, casting, directing, stage design, fund-raising, etc. Over 100,000 NT was obtained from private sponsors off campus and with the help of these ample human and financial resources the students were able to stage three performances in separate locations around Taichung in May and June 2008. The first performance took place in the Ming Hsien Hall at Tunghai University on May 14 with Mr. Jason Hu, Mayor of Taichung, and President Haydn Chen of Tunghai University presiding over the opening ceremony for that evening's performance. A second performance took place under the aegis of the English Club of the China Medical College in Taichung on May 31. The third and final performance was staged at Providence University on June 3. The size of these venues and the quality of the performances thus contributed to making the 2008 Seniors Play one of the most successful and widely attended in the history of the Tunghai Department of Foreign Languages. |
