Abstract	Without knowing anything of the contentious history between Sulawesi's Chinese and Indonesian Moslem communities, Taiwanese director Peng Ya-ling went to Makassar to conduct a reconciliation workshop. As director of Uhan Shii Theatre, Peng creates performances from oral histories she collects in interviews. She applied this technique in Indonesia, first having to overcome deep-seated suspicion from both sides. The Moslem Indonesian actors performed symbolic re-enactments of the Chinese settlers' stories for a mixed audience from both communities, thus effecting a moment of racial harmony. (As Provided).
