Taught in the act

Drama students at Peking University ended the term with a flourish, demonstrating their skills with a theatrical contest, Xing Wen reports.

When the graduation season gets underway in June, it's time for Wu Bi to bid farewell to his alma mater, Peking University, and also the seedbed of his passion for acting and playwriting.

Last month, the 24-year-old wowed the audience at the Peking University Hall with the play he wrote and the performances his team staged throughout the campus' theatrical contest, Ju Xing (roughly translated as theatrical star).
