此作原為2015年參加烏鎮戲劇節青年競演的30分鐘參賽作品,導演洪千涵、編劇馮琪鈞與演員張耀仁共同創作,榮獲當年青年競演戲劇節的首獎。2016年受關渡藝術節邀演,由導演洪千涵與編劇馮琪鈞重新改版,與演員們共同創作,將30分鐘雙人戲擴大編制及演出長度成為70分鐘的全新版本。
藉由「飛機」這跨越時區跟空間的載體所引發坐在相鄰位置的陌生人,其記憶的觸發及連結延伸。嘗試藉由各種人際關係組合,去探索記憶的更多面向;從親情、友情到陌生人際關係,將「失去」的定義擴大。當所有曾經發生過的記憶都是「失去」,那些引發你聯想到「失去」的現在,都將領著你體驗接下來未曾發生過的新未來。作品以幽默包裹悲傷,以魔幻寫實的風格和非線性敘事手法,深刻探討人的記憶如何形塑、影響當下每個決定,並以劇場視聽元素,喚起觀眾自身埋藏已久的情感記憶。

Ever Never is a semi-autobiographical story with its roots in the personal journey of Co-coism director Hung Chien-Han. Deeply affected by her father’s death and living away from home, on her travels she found the aircraft cabin a mysterious space where the past could be intercepted, where fragments of forgotten memories were rekindled and brought to life. Also drawing on the experiences of playwright Feng Chi-Chun and the rest of the creative team, in Ever Never the airport and aeroplane become places out of time where past and present collide in a delicate and heartfelt physical theatre piece.
Ever Never is like a practice song of life for us, we are constantly gaining memories, and they are always the exercises for the next task in our life. Things that have past will never happen once more, therefore keep on practicing is the only way we can move on, we will learn to face all the having and losing.

Powerful pause and cease, unruffled transition. _____ The Jury of the WuZhen Youth Competition. Wrapping sorrowful moods with humorous, relaxing atmosphere. Ever Never is a work of healing. ___ Chen Hui-Mei, a nominator of TaiShin Arts Award. It’s quite a mature work, while maintaining the temperature of a newborn life. Soft, but powerful. ___Shi Hang, a playwright in China.
