By the term ＂Play＂, it means to engage in an activity or something enjoyable, like a playful game or even a competition. It is also referred to pretending or acting. Therefore, play plays an important role in the development of children's growth. While playing, children will concentrate their attention completely into the role, applying the experience and knowledge they have learned before to associate, imitate and create. It goes without saying which the value of playing is to children. It is also an indispensable element for constructing the characteristics of children's theater through education, entertainment, imagination, and childishness mind. How to create a situation and atmosphere of ＂Play＂ so that children can enjoy and experience, is a big challenge in creating children's theatre. New Visions New Voices Theatre Company's Savor the Story, taking tasting the food as a theme, integrates sensory experience into the play, and allows children to participate in the performance through games, improvisation, and interaction. With the interaction of actors and audiences to share the relevant experience of eating and tasting, children can see how taste becomes a driver of memory and imagination, appreciating the fun of creativity which being brewed, initiated, and developed during the process of watching the performance. By the experience of creating the children's drama Savor the Story, this thesis will discuss how creators of children's theatre use play as a motivation to construct the textual structure and the plot development, exploring how to integrate the ＂interactive＂ and ＂immersed＂ of the play into the dramatic context, thereby breaking the limitations of the traditional ＂fourth wall＂ of theater performance. Also, from the perspectives of playwright, director, design, performance, and audience participation, this thesis explores the creative thinking and artistic aesthetics that are shaped when using ＂play＂ as a play, and considers the challenges and limitations that arise, to provide more possibilities and prospects for the creation of contemporary children's theater.
