Onstage, Offstage is a bold new form of Peking Opera written, directed, and played-in-lead by renowned Peking Opera artist Li Baochun—winner of the Shanghai Magnolia Award and the Lincoln Center's Outstanding Artist Award. Other performers include Kong Yuetzu and Li Longxian of Taipei Li-Yuan Peking Opera Theatre, musical theatre soprano Lin Tzuyin, and drama actor Liu Shimin. The songs were composed by Lu Yuyong. Acclaimed international composer Chung Yaokuang, blending traditional Peking opera vocals with Western classical techniques, composed the full scores. The performance will be accompanied, live, by a music ensemble, conducted by Chung Yaokuang.

Set in the 1930s, the plot of Onstage, Offstage follows a Peking Opera master and his adopted daughter as they rose above hardship and strove for growth. It portrays how a group of opera performers defied oppression and became their own heroes in life.

“All the world's a stage.”  All that on stage mirrors life. Onstage or offstage, it's ourselves that we are playing and appraising.
