Danny Yung used Tears of Barren Hill, the acclaimed work of Peking opera master Cheng Yanqiu, as a starting point for his performance of the same tittle. In this production, the experience of Cheng traveling in Europe in pursuit of art was merged into the experience of the characters, so experiments in thoughts and creativity in work collided in different times and spaces, resulting in explorations of cross-cultural and time transporting nature. In this performance, renowned Kunqu artist Shi Xiaomei was invited to perform with Young Peking opera artists Lan Tian and Dong Hongsong.
