Inhaltsangabe

This Peking Opera tale from the Song Dynasty was the likely catalyst for Carlo Gozzi's The Green Bird. Newly translated and adapted, it contains the original Chinese text on facing pages. Paired with The Green Bird, the two plays vividly contrast the dramaturgy of two diverse cultures within the same basic story.
