In 1980, it became the first Chinese play to be staged abroad, with a 50-day, 25-show run in Europe and the ongoing revival marks the 125th anniversary of Lao She's birth.

The story of Teahouse takes place in Beijing and presents a vivid depiction of people and life during the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
