With lighthearted and witty plots, Kunqu Opera The Tale of the Shrew is based on the allusion to Chen Zao, a historic figure from the Song Dynasty who was henpecked and a close friend of literary celebrity SuShi. Chen and his wife get reconciled after a series of conflicts, making it a must-watch to celebrate Spring Festival. Doesn’t it remind you of a similar work by Shakespeare?
