Northern Kunqu Opera Theatre, a renowned professional troupe in northern China dedicated to the traditional art form that dates back some 600 years, will stage its original production, titled Guo Feng, at Tianqiao Theatre in Beijing on June 20 and 21.
Guo Feng is a combination of two Chinese words, guo referring to country and feng meaning demeanor. The production is based on the story of Lady Xu Mu, who is considered a patriotic heroine and was the first female poet recorded in Chinese history. The title of the show delivers the spirit of Lady Xu Mu, who loves and is devoted to her country.
