Is this part of a new CPNOC touring strategy?

Do you mean the National dispatching Li-Yu to Europe more often?
It seems the Mei Troupe also will come more frequently, be it the policy of the Beijing theater or the result of Li Hongtu’s new troupe management, I don’t care, just come! I like the troupe because they have oldies and freshmen as well.

350 bucks?! Not exactly the ticket price of the Shanghai matinee… (40-5 yuan)
This program is good, but I don’t get (again) why the Brick? Why the Forest? Why not sticking to repertoire that fits Mr. Yu better? Like Wu Zixu. I bet he sang the OMG My beard! paragraph.
Don’t push Li stuff please! Y.Y Makes me disappointed.
