The Cherry Orchard @ Shanghai Culture Square
The Cherry Orchard is a timeless masterpiece by Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. First performed at the Moscow Art Theater in 1904, it has earned its place as one of the theater’s most treasured works.
This French adaptation of The Cherry Orchard premiered in 2021, opening the 75th Avignon Theater Festival. Directed by Tiago Rodrigues, this production stars the internationally acclaimed French actress Isabelle Huppert in the lead role, Lyubov.
Huppert's performance masterfully captures both the comedic and tragic dimensions of her character, adding depth and allure to the role. Tiago Rodrigues, both the director of the play and the current director of the Avignon Theater Festival, presents a fresh perspective on Chekhov’s classic.
The play explores the themes of "change of ownership and the disappearance of the cherry orchard," reflecting the societal shifts of late 19th and early 20th century Russia. Through elegant storytelling, it examines the rise of capitalism and the decline of the aristocracy.

Based on the 1950 American black comedy film noir of the same name, which was written and directed by Billy Wilder, Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical masterpiece Sunset Boulevard features the songs 'The Perfect Year,' 'As If We Never Said Goodbye,' 'New Ways to Dream,' 'With One Look' and – of course – 'Sunset Boulevard.'

The Whole Truth about Lies @ Shanghai Concert Hall
The whole truth about lies? Is that even conceivable – and desirable?
In our latest project, Berlin music theater company Nico and the Navigators focus on the most powerful weapon of populist politicians: the lie.
The presidential election in the USA, in which a shameless liar triumphed, has recently shown how effectively this age-old means of gaining power can be used.
But the rise of right-wing nationalist forces in other parts of the world also often goes hand in hand with the targeted use of untruths, disinformation, and fake news.
With ‘The Whole Truth about Lies,’ they are transforming the stage into a lie detector. The production deals – sometimes tongue-in-cheek, sometimes stately – with the truth as an abstract quantity that can have an existential effect in both the private and political spheres and bring about unexpected catastrophes.
The result is a show about self-deception, heteronomy, white lies, and fallacies

They have just unveiled a solo exhibition by Swedish visual artist Erik Johansson, titled 'All We Have is Now,' offering a surreal visual feast for viewers.
Erik Johansson is known for skillfully blending photography with various creative mediums. Based on photographic techniques, he uses computer technology to create seemingly real yet impossible scenes that defy the laws of physics in the real world.
As part of his solo exhibition 'All We Have is Now,' all the works are specially created for this show. Through surreal imagery, Johansson shares profound reflections on topics such as 'human existence' and 'the environment,' extended from the concept of the 'present moment.'
