J-Pop 响起， 007 壮志凌云！

1993 年，中国展开了代号为“天鸭”的行动。 严队长和特工老张被派往美国，盗取价值连城的飞 行模拟软件。在执行任务的过程中，他们与美国国 家安全局特工肯德利中校狭路相逢。这个老 谋深算的对手企图？… 通过潜入他们的梦境， 一举摧毁中国的军事野心！ 《天鸭》是由Sam Wang 创作并出演的双 语独角戏。在这个嬉笑怒骂的跨国谍战故事中， Sam 一人分饰了七个滑稽可笑的角色。 ——演出有一半是以普通话进行的（有字幕）。 混合低保真与高科技，利用投影、木偶、 音乐数字和手工道具，《天鸭》巧妙地运 用技术，完美展现接地气、重互动的粗 糙剧场的魅力。来吧，预备，起飞！

Top Gun meets 007 with a J-Pop backing track!

1993. China launches Operation Skyduck. Captain Yan and Agent Chang are sent to steal America’s most prized flight simulation software, when they find themselves trapped by hotshot NSA agent, Commander Kendrick. His plan? To destroy China’s military ambition once and for all… by infiltrating their dreams!

Skyduck is a bilingual solo show written by and starring Sam Wang, who plays seven hilarious characters in a rollicking tale of international espionage – and half the story is in Mandarin (with English surtitles).

Blending lo-fi with high-tech and utilising projection, puppets, musical numbers, and handmade gadgets, Skyduck deploys all the charm of rough theatre alongside a truly impressive use of technology. Prepare for lift-off!
