Terracotta Warriors, a new action musical, will make two stops in the San Francisco Bay Area, treating audiences to a new and unique kind of theatre experience! Performances are Sept. 26-29 at the Flint Center and Oct. 11-15 at the Orpheum Theatre.

"Terracotta Woldiers is the only show with the Xian Cultural Relics Department's stamp of approval!" according to press notes, "This haunting story of China's First Emperor is seen through the eyes of his beloved concubine and scheming eunuch. The most incredible Chinese historical facts are revealed on stage against a background of epic sets and lavish costumes. The audience will marvel at the dance, music and action used to tell a story of power and lust, of betrayal and forbidden passion.

Battles and conquests, forbidden love, burning of books, live burial of scholars and even the building of the Great Wall end with a final climax of the Dance of the Terracotta Warriors. It's a theatrical event to be remembered!"

Terracotta Warriors is choreographed by Jonathan Feng Han, directed by Dennis K. Law, MD and Moon Lee Law, with set designs by Juhua Tu and costume designs by Mo Xiaomin and runs 2 hours and 20 minutes with a 20 minute intermission.
