Abstract
Family Tradition Theater is the application of Integral Drama Based Pedagogy in community family education. Centered around the ancient wisdom of “Life of Harmony”, i.e., delight in way of life and admiration of harmony, the Family Tradition Theater incorporates the five ideas of Chinese family culture into five relationships to find the obstacles in these relationships and the ways to communicate. Specifically, they start with five core values of family culture - harmony, filial piety, faith, righteousness and propriety - the Theater guides audiences to see or realize the “viruses” in daily life, i.e., prejudice, complaint, unrealistic comparison, control, and scheming; remove these “viruses” through facing, introspecting, understanding, mastering, practicing, sharing, and growing; shape five spiritual accomplishments emotion, responsibility, rules, rationality and trust; and construct three major mindsets - perspectives of internality, relationship, and growth;
