2. Artistic Program "Hoi An Memories" and 5 Enchanting Performances

Hoi An Memories leaves an indelible mark with its five emotionally charged performances featuring over 500 professional actors. Meticulous investments in costumes, performance style, sound, and lighting have allowed the audience to vividly grasp the formation and development of Hoi An Ancient Town. From its humble beginnings as a small village, navigating through various ups and downs, Hoi An has emerged as the bustling port of Faifo. Today, Hoi An is recognized by global travelers as a moss-covered ancient town full of mystery. Specifically, the five exceptional performances of "Hoi An Memories" encapsulate meaningful narratives as follows:

2.1. Stage 1: Lives - Hoi An in its Early Days of Cultivation and Settlement

The immersive "Hoi An Memories" begins with imagery symbolizing vitality and growth—the first bricks laid as a sturdy foundation for today's Hoi An. Particularly impressive is the image of graceful women in 'ao dai,' strolling elegantly along a path illuminated by light. This moment not only highlights the beauty of Vietnamese women in traditional dress but also symbolizes the commencement of an endless journey through time, exploring memory stories of ancient Hoi An.

Daily activities like weaving fabric and harvesting rice will be vividly and authentically recreated through the harmonious combination of sound, light, and the performers' agility. Images of young men diligently working to provide sufficient meals for their families, or fishermen casting nets during the harvest season, all portray a prosperous, peaceful, simple, and familiar Hoi An.
