WU SONG SLAYS THE SEDUCTRESS

SYNOPSIS

Wu Song Slays the Seductress 《武松殺嫂》 is a self-reflexive reinterpretation of a Ming dynasty play from one of China's four great classical texts, The Water margins《水滸傳》. In attempting to stage the tension between updating a traditional opera form and maintaining its authenticity, elements of ancient Chinese erotica, internet art and techno music are introduced to blur the start and end points between new and old, avant-garde and kitsch, innovation and tradition.
