Stella Kimley arranged a group outing to attend the opera, "A Wedding on the Execution Ground." There must have been nearly a dozen and a half of us in the group.
The story in the opera is based on the account of two young Communists executed by the Kuomintang (KMT) during a 1927 purge of Communists. The opera was the combination of a love story and political education done in the style of classic Chinese opera.
We enjoyed the show but it was 2 hours long with no intermission (a long time between potty breaks).
