He aids a monk named Tang Sanzang on a pilgrimage westward to retrieve the Buddist sutras. Once an unruly beast, Sun Wukong wears a magical circlet given by the Budda that he can never take off. When Tang Sanzang chants a certain sutra, the circlet will tighten and cause unbearable pain. By doing so, Tang Sanzang is able to tame Sun Wukong.
\n\nBased on the classic Chinese novel, The Monkey King is a famous Peking opera play centered on the role of Sun Wukong.
\n\n\n\n
The protagonist of the play is Lu Tian-Hao. Once a celebrated Peking opera star devoted his entire life to playing the lead role of The Monkey King, Tian-Hao decides to quit and works at an advertising agency. The agency is promoting an upcoming mobile game titled “72 Transformations”, which is inspired by Journey to the West and Sun Wukong’s ability to transform into 72 forms. Even though Tian-Hao knows the story like the back of his hand, he is unable to offer a proposal to advertise the game.
\n\nAs the play unfolds, the audience finally learns that Tian-Hao decides to quit performing because he feels responsible for his father’s death. Like the magical circlet that Sun Wukong wears, Tian-Hao’s life is shaped by his strict father’s expectations. His father has extremely high expectations for him as a performer ever since he was a child. Once, Tian-Hao quarreled with him over a mistake he made on stage. In a fit of rage, Tian-Hao stormed out of the house without eating the noodles prepared by his father, an unspoken but loving gesture from him. That night, his father passed away. Devastated and burdened with guilt, Tian-Hao was unable to perform again.
\n\nTian-Hao lived and breathed Peking Opera. Who would have thought his final performance will be for the promotion of a mobile game? In his last magic transformation, would he be able to regain himself?
