Nixon In China

Nixon In China

Harris Theater
205 E. Randolph Chicago

This contemporary American opera radically reinvented the notion of musical drama upon its premiere in 1987. Based on the former President's visit to China in 1972, it provides a profound examination of the human struggles of two couples- Richard and Pat Nixon and Chairman Mao and his wife.

Presented by Chicago Opera Theater
