About Shanghai Dolls

The show is based on a true story about a cultural martyr and a cultural oppressor, with two penniless actresses meeting in Shanghai at auditions for Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, set against political upheaval in China. One will go on to become China’s first female director, the other, the architect of the Cultural Revolution.
