Love on the Magpie Bridge
August 25, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm
FreeClara Hsu’s first poetic play, Love on the Magpie Bridge, was written for the players of Clarion Performing Arts Center’s Summer Theater, 2019. Based on a Chinese legend known in the celebration of Qixi (Night of Sevens) festival, the play incorporated an ancient poem, a popular folk song, an art song and many classical and folk tunes played on the guzheng by David Wong. With an intergenerational cast the play was performed on August 5, 7 and 11 to the delight of the San Francisco Bay Area community. This year, Night of Sevens falls on August 25. Let us celebrate the festival of women, domestic skills and Mother Nature by watching together this fun and magical play on Youtube!
