Mu Performing Arts: Flower Drum Song
Now - July 12, 2009
Ordway McKnight Theatre
In Tony Award®-winner David Henry Hwang's new adaptation of the Rogers and Hammerstein classic, Mei-Li flees communist China and finds herself in San Francisco's Chinatown. This naïve young refugee is befriended by Wang, who is struggling to keep the Chinese opera tradition alive despite his son's determination to turn the old opera house into a swingin' Western-style nightclub. The unique blending of American razz-ma-tazz and stylized Chinese opera traditions creates a beautiful theatrical tapestry in this lovely new version of an American classic.
