Overview

Three Kunqu excerpts move from the mischief of a schoolroom to an outlaw's flight and a woman's appeal against betrayal.

In Chunxiang Disrupts the Lesson, a spirited maid unsettles her young mistress's tutor. Lin Chong Flees by Night follows the fugitive on his journey towards Liangshan after the burning of the fodder depot. In An Appeal to the God, Jiao Guiying confronts Wang Kui's broken promise in a sea-god temple. The excerpts draw on plays by Tang Xianzu, Li Kaixian and Wang Yufeng respectively.
