"The company has been staging classic Kunqu Opera pieces and we want to create an original piece for the audience. The story of Lady Xu Mu is rarely told onstage so we decided to do it," says Luo.
According to Cao, though it's a story from 2,700 years ago, audiences could relate to it since it's about love for family and country.
In June, Northern Kunqu Opera Theatre is celebrating its 66th birthday with about 20 performances in Beijing.
