A new play for Lunar New Year, based on a popular character from Chinese folklore and a little bit Wizard of Oz. A young girl discovers how important it is to think for herself, and that just because someone is big and loud, doesn’t make them right. This all-new production features martial arts, ribbon dancing, and a giant puppet in a classic story with a modern twist, funny and fun for the whole family.
