EMPRESS WU – THE MUSICAL (29th Sept – 21st Oct)


A Dama Music Theatre Production Presents EMPRESS WU – THE MUSICAL

Empress Wu is an original musical based on the life, loves and times of China’s first and only female emperor, who had ruled the country with an iron fist more than a thousand years ago. Tang China during her reign was the richest and most powerful country in the world. It was China’s golden age and the Empress held together a sprawling empire against external threats and internal court intrigues. Not unlike the other emperors, Empress Wu’s ascent to power was littered with acts of betrayal and treachery but also of honor and loyalty. A controversial figure condemned and praised by historians in equal measures, the Empress enjoyed supreme power. She was ambitious and ruthless. A visionary. An autocrat. The symbol of ultimate female defiance in Confucian China.

Venue: Pentas 1, The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre
