Actress Dong Fan, who portrays Cheng and also serves as the president of Sichuan People's Art Theater, emphasized the team's visit to San Su Ci, the memorial temple and former residence of the Su family in Meishan city, Southwest China's Sichuan province, as a source of inspiration. The family's rules, regulations, and life achievements displayed there deeply influenced the creative process.
"We were moved by the woman's unwavering dedication to her family. She deserves to be remembered, and her stories are deserving of being told," Dong expressed.
The play incorporates elements of Sichuan, including its folk music, local opera, and dialect, enriching the portrayal of this captivating narrative.
