"LONELY Stage" is drama director Yu Manwen's first production for the "Seed Theater" project at the Mini Theater in 1933 Old Millfun.
It tells behind the scenes stories of Kunqu Opera.
In this monodrama, one actress plays a Kunqu xiaosheng role, usually a young scholar or lover in Chinese opera, and talks about the excitement and nervousness of being on stage, self doubts and takes questions on Kunqu Opera.
Kunqu Opera singing will be used to present moods on stage, according to director Yu, who has a strong Kunqu background.
"I believe there are many behind the scene stories in all art fields," she says. "We make use of the stage to present the charm and stories of those arts, and encourage young artists to present their creations."
"Lonely Stage" is on the short list to appear at the upcoming Wuzhen Theater Festival that begins on May 9.
Yu says the Seed Theater project will provide more opportunities for artists in different fields to tell their stories on stage.
Date: June 20-22, 7.30pm
