| Introduction | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Namsadang was a performance troupe that performed during the Joseon Dynasty. One of its most beloved leaders remains a woman named Baudeogi. Her lingering artistic contribution and spirit is celebrated at the Anseong Baudeogi Festival. The modern version of Namsadang Baudeogi has been revived, and will be performed every Saturday from April to October. The performance consists of lively repertory plays including Pungmullori and Seoljanggo. Festival Programs:Baudeogi is the leader’s name of Namsadangpae, who became the first female entertainer in Korea to lead the vaudeville troupe. Baudeogi, who had many special talents and an artistic nature, toured the nation, where she entertained construction workers working on Gyeongbokgung Palace in the 19th century by performing popular folk arts. In memory of Baudeogi, Namsadang’s Jeonsugwan was reestablished for people who wanted to see her artistic spirit and talents live on. The performance shows six exciting episodes of Namsadang including a tumbling performance called “Salpan”, a puppet show called “Deolmi”, “Sangmonori”, a masque play called “Deotboegi” as the first stage. And it has other performances like “Pungmullori” and “Seoljanggo” which are a big hit with audiences, especially when they take part in shoulder dancing too. The whole audience bursts into laughter. This is the place where you feel the spirit of “coming together”. The second time around watching this show will be just as thrilling as the first time around. Major Highlights: The most popular program is tightrope walking called “Eoreum Jultagi” which makes audiences wild with enthusiasm and receives big ovations. “Eoreum” does very risky performances on a very high tightrope such as walking slowly, walking with short, quick paces, as well as sitting down and standing up. Mr. Gwon, Wontae, the world record holder of tightrope dancing in the “World Records” shown on Nippon TV of Japan, moves nimbly and freely across the tightrope like it was a piece of cake. |
