Echoes of Ghost Lake tells of photographer Ah-Hua and Rukai youth Daru meeting in the Ghost Lake tribe. Initially clashing due to cultural differences, they gradually bond through elder Vuvu's wisdom. The play highlights Rukai rituals, Ghost Lake legends and cultural displays, exploring cultural identity and natural relationships. The music blends Rukai chants, Minnan Nanguan and modern electronic music, contrasting traditional tribes with modern cities. It culminates in a duet of traditional and modern dance, symbolising cultural inclusiveness and modern civilisation's inheritance.
