This article caught my attention because my mother was born in Taiwan, a large number of my extended family live in Taipei, and I have been there ten times throughout my life. Taipei is my favorite place in the world, and I feel comfortable and at home there. I’ve never had any reason to go to the Wanhua area of Taipei, and I’ve never heard of Monga. I know that Dihua street is one of the oldest places in the city, and I had always assumed that it was the oldest. Now I am interested in going to Monga next time I go to Taiwan, especially after reading about 13 Tongues. I think that it is wonderful for a Taiwanese production, and Taiwanese culture in general to receive more recognition and attention in the US. It would also be nostalgic to see a show based off of the people and atmosphere of the place that half of me calls home.
