Features: Based on years of observation of Chinese theater performances in Dali, three Japanese theater critics explore the possibilities of Chinese theater from a unique perspective. The book covers a wide range of plays, characters, fields, and issues, which is rare among similar works. Though it may be likened to viewing flowers through mist, it is more like admiring the moon in a mirror. It is a different voice from a neighboring country, a sharpening stone for swords, and another milestone in Sino-Japanese theater exchange.
