Imagine a Peking opera performance telling the story of John Woo's "Red
Cliff" while reminding you of the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony. Zhang
Jigang, assistant director of the August 8 spectacular, will make his
Peking opera directorial debut when his version of "Red Cliff"
premieres at the end of the year. The play is set to premiere at Beijing's National Center for the Performing Arts on December 22.
