A fight in the dark, a ghost's demand for justice and a mother's desperate search span three Peking opera selections.
Entry with a paper ticket only.
The China National Peking Opera Company presents a night-time clash caused by mistaken suspicion, the murdered merchant Liu Shichang's appeal for justice, and Hu's search for her child after leaving the magical mirror with the infant and escaping alone. Each story brings a different kind of suspense to the stage.
