“Writing in Water,” a Chinese contemporary comedy created by director Stan Lai, will be screened in the U.K. and the U.S. on the night of November 28.

With a cast featuring the renowned TV host He Jiong and Huang Yici, the production will be streamed online by Virtual Circle, a newly established online concert and event livestreaming platform. Virtual Circle was launched by Harrison Parrott, an award-winning classical music management and creative agency.

It will be the first time for the Chinese stage production,which has been running successfully for more than six years, to be seen by audiences in the U.K. and the U.S. through streaming platforms.

Besides the comedy, a film production of “Sacrifice,” a classic Peking opera piece adapted from “The Orphan of Zhao,” will also be screened in the U.K. and the U.S. on December 12. Featuring Peking opera actress Wang Peiyu in the lead role, the film was shot in 2018 in Shanghai and premiered in Beijing in September this year.
