Wild Swans

China at the heart of the 20th Century. A nation transformed beyond recognition.

Through the eyes of one fiercely courageous family, Wild Swans takes us on a journey from the early days of Communist hope and struggle, through the chaos and confusion of Mao's Cultural Revolution, to the birth of a superpower.

An astonishing human story, Wild Swans has sold over 10 million copies in 30 languages, making it the best-selling non-fiction book in British publishing history.

This first-ever stage version brings together author Jung Chang with playwright Alexandra Wood, director Sacha Wares, designer Miriam Buether and Beijing-based video artist Wang Gong Xin.
