Pingtung County is set to host the "2026 Parent-Child Music Theater: Good Mom Seal" as part of its "Southern Wind Music Festival." The Original Sound Baroque Ensemble will present the performance on September 19th at the Pingtung Performing Arts Center Experimental Theater, with shows scheduled for 2 PM and 4 PM.

The production invites audiences, both young and old, to join the protagonist, Xiao Wei, on a fantastical quest to find his mother. The ensemble, guided by the philosophy of "making life musical and music part of life," intricately weaves together Baroque music, vintage instruments, and children's theater. The show incorporates puppets, traditional shadow play, large-scale picture books, and interactive musical games.

This approach aims to move beyond passive listening, allowing children to immerse themselves in the story and connect with Baroque music through laughter and imagination. The performance is designed to be enjoyable for children while also offering adults an opportunity to reconnect with their children's perspectives during the show. The ensemble has been creating music-theater productions since 2012, adapting literary works, myths, and stories about Baroque composers.

"Good Mom Seal" transforms common parent-child friction into a charming adventure, encouraging families to experience the theater together for a memorable time. Ticket information is available through OPENTIX, and further details can be found on the Pingtung County Government's Culture Affairs Bureau website and the Pingtung Arts Travel Facebook page.
