"I was deeply touched by the story," she says. "It is about the passion of life. I hope through my performance, the audience will get to know the different sides of Jin Xing, not just that talented dancer on the stage."
Her last drama work as a choreographer goes back five years when she successfully played the role of a lovely dog in "Sylvia," a romantic comedy by contemporary American writer A.R. Gurney.
The role of the handsome young man will be performed by American-Chinese actor Zhang Lei.
