‘Chen San and Wuniang’ in Multiple Time Dimensions
  • Introduction
Tickets

Couples nowadays shower each other with ostentatious affection, but how did people in ancient times do when they were in a romantic relationship?

 

In the silence of the night, the heroine, Wuniang, yearns for her distant beloved Chen San. Memories of the moments they spent together emerge: admiring lanterns at the festival, casting lychees to him from her painted tower, how Chen San sold himself to pay for the mirror he deliberately broke, love confessions elicited by a dispute over an umbrella, and finally their vows. The play extends from the stage into real life, demonstrating the hard work of liyuanxi actors, whose performance echoes the beautiful love stories in ancient times.
