TR Warszawa: Two Swords in Beijing

Date: Jan 20-21 - 7:30 pm

Venue: Beijing Tianqiao Performing Arts Center

Price: 99-580 yuan

Grzegorz Jarzyna's Two Swords is the first premiere for the famous Polish stage director and founder of the TR Warszawa punk theater to be produced in China with an international group of actors from China, Poland and the United States. The script is based on a story by Lu Xun, one of the most important Chinese writers and essayists of the 1st half of the 20th century. Written in 1926, the story is a variation on the ancient Chinese myth of a sword-maker murdered on the orders of the king and of the swordmaker's son who wants to avenge his father's death. In this symbolic story, Xun asks about the price of exposing the truth and shows the kind of sacrifice struggle for justice requires. Grzegorz Jarzyna delves into Chinese mythology in search of values that have been forgotten in today's world.
