9/17(Sat) The Moon Fest Special (Host: Kat)

Dear all,

Happy Moon Fest! For the special weekend (and those who’re willing to come out on a holiday—or even a Typhoon day!) let’s make this meeting properly festive. :) Having done some theater, and also being a writer, I thought I’d share a few things I know with the group. So we’re veering off our usual format—with plenty of conversation intact, plus some reading, writing and acting!

If anyone has leftover moon cakes to share, do feel free to bring them over. It’ll totally make the event! :mrgreen:

TO PREPARE:

A one-minute retelling of the Chinese “Moon Goddess” story (a.k.a. "Chang’e Flying to the Moon”). You can use any genre (comedy, horror, Western, etc.) or subgenre (vampire, zombie, spy, martial arts, etc.), add any new characters, and of course give it a new plot or ending. Be creative! Be crazy! :twisted:

But please make the moon one of your settings, and mention at least 2 of the 4 characters below:
Chang’e, Houyi, the jade rabbit, and Wu Gang.

If you'd like, write down the story before the meeting. Then we’ll each “tell” the story to the group, not “read” off our script. :wink:

If you need some inspiration from the original tale, here are two versions:

It’s wonderful that we get to spend some time together on this holiday weekend, in the spirit of reunion and togetherness, a true Moon Fest tradition. To all my dear Yoyo friends, Happy Moon Fest, and hope to see you at the meeting!

The best teacher is child,
the worst mistake for one is to abandon oneself,
the greatest treasure in the world is love!
