Before one performance, at Ching An Temple near Tainan, the actors became caught up in the local thrice-yearly all-night festival, and paraded the streets amid worshippers and the smoke of firecrackers until well past dawn, only then pitching stage and mounting the show.
在台南西港鄉慶安宮的那次演出，演員們甚至徹夜未眠，跟隨三年一度請的盛大行伍遊遍大街小巷，沿途鞭炮聲響徹黑夜的星空。到達王船預定地參加儀式後，他們回到廟前已經早上七點，日頭正要高起。於是地氈一鋪、鮮明俗麗的田野佈景一架起，立刻散發出廟埕往日的喜慶色彩。
