There aren't many countries that have roiled as significantly as China over the last hundred years and Jung Chang's book, Wild Swans, adapted for theatre by Alexandra Wood, covers them in monumental proportions.
Living through the experiences of a family caught in the middle of it all, Wild Swans sways from the early days of the idealistic communist uprising, right the away through Moao's "cultural revolution" and into the opening gambits of China's move to the superpower that it has now become.
Wild Swans opens at the Young Vic on the 13th April and runs through until the 13th May 2012. Performances start at 19:30 with Wednesday and Saturday matinees on the 25th & 28th April, and the 2nd, 5th, 9th, 12th & 13th May starting at 14:30. Tickets are £29.50, £25, £17.50 and £10 with previews tickets for the 13th - 19th April 2012 at £17.50 and £10.
