Image description

The 'executioner' is surrounded by 'angels' in the first act of the last performance of Puccini's opera Turandot at the Forbidden City September 13. More than 2,000 guests watched the last performance of the $15 million production directed by China's renowned film director Zhang Yimou. Foreign artists have long sought to perform Turandot in the Forbidden City, the former imperial palace, but this is the first time it has been permitted. Turandot was once banned in China as it depicts a cruel Chinese princess who demands the death of suitors who are unable to solve three riddles. ASW/RT/KM
