The Program

The Setting
From the real world to the nonexistent other shore. The time cannot be defined or stated precisely.
|
|
The Other Shore
was written in 1986 and was originally scheduled to be performed
by the Beijing People's Art Theatre but the production was suspended because the
play was considered politically sensitive.
It was subsequently performed in Taiwan
by the National College of Art in 1990 and by the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts in 1995.
|
Production Notes
|
ReAct's play reading of The Other Shore
