China, at the heart of the 20th Century, became a nation transformed beyond recognition. Through the eyes of one fiercely courageous family, Wild Swans takes us on a journey from the early days of Communist hope and struggle, through the chaos and confusion of Mao’s Cultural Revolution to the birth of a superpower. An astonishing human story, Wild Swans has sold more than 13 million copies in 36 languages. This first ever stage version brings together author Jung Chang with playwright Alexandra Wood, director Sacha Wares, designer Miriam Buether and Beijing video artist Wang GongXin in a co-production with the American Repertory Theater and London’s Young Vic/Actors Touring Company.

Just announced: Katie Leung from the Harry Potter film series will play Er-Hong, the character based on Jung Chang.
