Adapted from the eponymous film, Peking opera New Dragon Inn relates the story of Ming dynasty General Zhou Huaian, who protects the orphans of a loyal official from being chased by the secret agents. He finally manages to eliminate all the enemies and escapefrom danger. This adaptation retains the storyline and relationship of the characters of the original, while deconstructing and interpreting the story using the aesthetics and artistic techniques of traditional Chinese opera.
Peking opera New Dragon Inn, after three years of preparation, premiered in 2019 to great acclaim. In 2021, Shi Yihong, an accomplished qingyi of the Mei school from Shanghai Jingju Theatre Company who is also the producer and lead actress of this performance, joined hands with the revival director Liu Jun to revive the work into this new Shanghai-style Peking opera to be performed at this Festival.
