Liu Xiaoqing takes her Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) drama to stages across the US, Chen Jia reports in San Francisco.
Stage drama fans in Silicon Valley will get a blast from the past - to China's Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) to be precise - with this weekend's performance of Stunning Beauty at the Cupertino Flint Center.
Born in the 1950s but looking as if she were still in her 20s, Chinese actress Liu Xiaoqing stars in the show expected to fire up the box office. "Every audience member, every person is inherently fond of the new, and tired of the old, and performers must meet those needs," Liu says.
