Descriptions:
The new Peking opera, The Tragedy of Prince Zi Dan, is adapted from one of the most famous Shakespearean tragedies, Hamlet. Immediately after the death of Yong Bo, king of the Realm of Red City, his brother Yong Shu ascends the throne and marries his former queen and sister-in-law, Jiang Rong. Then Prince Zi Dan, Yong Bo’s son, is secretly informed by the ghost of his father that his uncle, Yong Shu, is the murderer of his father and seducer of his mother. The edifice of Zi Dan’s dream is collapsed all of a sudden, when human sins and his own meditations on existence both haul his psyche into an ever-deepening abyss
