Liyuan Theater Program Details:

Wheelbarrow Fight
Synopsis: During the Southern Song Dynasty, General Gao Chong, a famous anti-Jin hero, charged alone into the enemy’s formation to rescue the emperor at Niutou Mountain. He overturned eleven heavy iron carts in a row before his horse collapsed from exhaustion, sacrificing his life heroically. This is a classic martial arts piece featuring a Wusheng (male warrior) role, highlighting superb martial arts skills and heroic spirit.
Zhaojun Departs for the Frontier
Synopsis: During the reign of Emperor Yuan of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Zhaojun refused to bribe the court painter. As a result, her portrait was defamed, and she was married far away to the Xiongnu Khan for peace. Holding her pipa, she bid farewell to her homeland and embarked on a long journey across the desert, telling a sorrowful yet resolute story of family and nation.
Eight Hammers
Synopsis: Jin Wuzhu led his army to attack Zhuxian Town of the Southern Song Dynasty, while General Yue Fei resisted with his troops. Lu Wenlong, the adopted son of Jin Wuzhu, was brave and skillful in battle with two spears, defeating four great generals of the Song army (each with two hammers, making eight hammers in total). Later, after Wang Zuo cut off his arm to persuade him, Lu Wenlong learned his true life experience, abandoned the dark side, and returned to the Song to fight against the Jin army.
