It begins in the New York of sparkling skyscrapers and enchanting nightlife and ends with a touching reunion on Beijing's Great Wall.
In between, are segments showing a beautiful lady and a middle-aged businessman traveling from Hollywood to Paris, and from London to Beijing; women in bright Hawaiian grass skirts dancing in a tropical rainforest; men in black tuxedos with their top hats flying, singing in perfect English; and lavishly costumed Chinese lion dancers, speaking awkward Chinese.
An original Broadway musical, Race for Love, is choreographed and directed by Lynne Taylor-Corbett, who was nominated for two Tony Awards and a Drama Desk Award in 2000 for the direction and choreography of Broadway's Swing!
