A household Peking Opera work, The Fourth Son of the Yang Family Visits His Mother is based on the popular Chinese folklore The Warriors of the Yang Family. The story centers on Yang Yanhui, a former senior general of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), who goes through many difficulties to visit his mother She Saihua after years of separation during the Song-Liao wars.
Themed on family reunion and domestic affection, the production is one frequently performed during Spring Festival.
