Revolutionary songs, massed choral singing and dance bring The East Is Red to the stage, with the Philharmonic Choir and soloists including Wang Jing and Xiong Qingcai.
The Philharmonic Choir, vocal soloists and dancers combine singing, dance and drama. The company includes chorus, solo and ensemble singers as well as spoken-word artists; the principal cast also features Feng Qiusheng, Chen Suwei and Niu Jianjun.
Created from revolutionary historical songs and newly written songs, the work traces resistance to feudalism, colonialism and warlord rule, and the road to liberation under Communist Party leadership. Its story moves from the Party's founding through revolution to the founding of the People's Republic and the start of socialist construction.
Melodies sung across generations include Nanniwan, On the Songhua River and Defend the Yellow River. The organiser also highlights the production's choreography and costumes.
Admission is by paper ticket only, and attendees must bring their paper tickets to the performance.

Inside, 1,419 seats on two levels face a stage 23 metres wide, with an American Austin pipe organ behind it. The hall grew from a 5,000-seat open-air theatre of 1942 and was renovated by April 1999.
