THE WILD SWANS OF JUNG CHANG LAND ON THE STAGE AT AMERICAN REPERTORY THEATER

"WILD SWANS"
AUTHOR


JUNG CHANG

"WILD SWANS" THE PLAY
which had its world premiere
the American Repertory Theater
Cambridge, Massachusetts
yesterday
is based on her 1991 book

Some background on the play, including information about the playwright and director, and about how an eight-hundred page memoir subtitled "Three Daughters of China" (Jung Chang and her mother and grandmother) was worked into a two-hour drama focusing on the husband and wife of the middle generation, is to be found here and here and here. The theater's WILD SWANS website is here; the production runs through March 11 in the U.S. and then moves to the U.K.

The Boston Globe now has a review, here.

Some impressions of the play, seen March 1, here.
