Based on the ancient text "The Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shanhai jing)", this play enacts the classical world of Chinese mythology, traversing the creation of humans to the beginning of Chinese dynastic history. It features a world of magical powers and child-like wonderment, peopled with gods, ghosts, ghouls, and monsters.
