The Chinese version of Nobel laureate Dario Fo's Accidental Death of an Anarchist has become a signature work for Meng Jinghui, one of the country's most popular experimental theater directors.
 
 
As usual, Meng's production is marked by captivating music, punk-rock lighting, surreal stage and costume designs, and lines relatable for domestic theatergoers. Even if you know the script already, Meng introduces new elements; if not, don't worry, because Meng leads you through the exciting, hilarious and piercing story.
 
 
The play starts in a psychiatric institution, where a patient with amnesia is accused of desertion during war. However, a woman named Luisa comes to claim him as her lover, Giovanni, and brings him back home. But then the real Giovanni, a rogue and doppelganger to the patient, comes back from the battlefield and continues his life of crime - while scheming to blame his misdeeds on the amnesiac.

He has directed many works, including Think of Worldly Pleasure, Accidental Death of an Anarchist, One Hundred Years of Solitude, Rhinoceros in Love, Head without Tail, Amber, In Illusion, Romantic Meeting, The Life Attitude of Two Dogs, Labyrinth and Magic Mountain.
