Chamber Opera: Xu Xu’s Ghost Love

Based on Xu Xu' s novella.  Performed in Putonghua with Chinese and English surtitles. 

1945.  At night, a man meets a woman’s ghost.  Like the moon above, the “ghost” is bright and pure.  The man, moved and touched by her moon-lit beauty, seeks to unravel the enigma about her and see where their relationship would lead.   

1955, the man has left post-war Shanghai and is alone in Hong Kong.  The dark unforgettable memory of those times recurs again in same dark dank air, throbbing…

How does one free oneself from bondage?  When the world of ghosts is revealed, we learn what it is to be human.
