Welcome to the jungle

If you had to decide, which one would you choose: your childhood sweetheart or your to-be husband? This is a question that Jin Zi and Chou Hu struggle with. The moment they decide to run away together into the forest, this interlude of crazy and strange love becomes doomed. But in the wildness where the unfortunate couple die, humanity is liberated and hope is born.

Led by the esteemed actor Li Baochun, the Taipei-based Li-yuan Peking Opera Theater will present The Wildness, adapted from Cao Yu's masterpiece, to the Poly Theater in Beijing on Saturday and Sunday.

The performance is a highlight of the on-going Beijing Music Festival, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary.
