Melbourne University Chinese Theatre Group proudly presents...

美人计 - The Beauty Entrapment

directed by DANIELLE HAO

28th August - 5th September 2008

Set in the turbulent years near the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, the warlords Sun Quan and Liu Bei formed an unwilling alliance to defeat the armies of Cao Cao. However, once victory is secured, the alliance soon sours over who gets the spoils of the land. An advisor of Sun Quan, Zhuo Yu proposes an idea dubbed as “The Beauty Entrapment” in an attempt to coerce Liu Bei into handing over the land he conquered.

What will be the fate of Liu Bei? Will the lure of beauty be stronger than the love for his country? Will true love prevail in a world of politics and betrayal?

The trap is set.
