Huaxia Chinese School at Plainsboro

The Ancient Chinese tale of Mulan is brought to life in a unique multi-disciplinary performance by Huaxia Chinese School at Plainsboro. This drama is enhanced by poetry, music, songs, dances, and of course Chinese martial arts to create a stunning performance, narrated in Chinese and English. According to legend, Mulan took her aged father's place in the conscription for the army by disguising herself as a man. She becomes a formidable warrior as she fights and saves China. When the Emperor ultimately honors her for her long and distinguished military service, she declines the position of high office he offers, and returns home to her beloved family. $16/$14 G
