By Diane Baker / Staff reporterThe folks behind the annual Taipei Arts Festival have been thinking a lot about cities — past, present and future — and they want Taipei residents and others to do the same. The Taipei-based Chinese opera troupe has gained international renown for its reworkings of William Shakespeare’s plays. The festival has a great Web site (www.taipeifestival.org) in Chinese (traditional and simplified) and English with information about all the programs and forums as well as special ticket offers. Tickets are being sold online via the www.artsticket.com.tw Web site or at National Theater Concert Hall box offices. However, you need to look for the “Special 2017臺北藝術節” category on Web site instead of looking under theater or dance (www.artsticket.com.tw/CKSCC2005/Product/Product00/ProductsCategoriesPage.aspx?ProductsCategoryId=m40sIX3ugy4LtKV0O4oS0).
