The event set to mobilize the greatest number of performers is a version of Puccini's（普契尼）monumental Tosca（托斯卡）. The opera will feature stage design, costumes, and music tailored specifically for the festival. In addition, Noh theater master Kurouemon Katayama's（山九郎右卫门）production of Maso（妈祖） interprets deeply-rooted local beliefs in Taiwan, and is sure to attract attention from Noh enthusiasts.
