Stan Lai’s plays have the rare knack “to combine popular culture with high art.” The Far Eastern Economic Review describes his work as "the most exciting theatre in the Chinese-speaking world." His most famous work Secret Love In Peach Blossom Land (1986) has toured worldwide, been made into an award-winning film (1992), and in 2007 was chosen as one of the top ten Chinese plays of the century. Lai’s 2006 Beijing production has been a milestone in recent Chinese theatre for the breadth and depth of its influence. The New York Times said it “may be the most popular contemporary play in China…by the end, the audience is left to contemplate the burdens of memory, history, longing, love and the power of theater itself.” In 2007, Lai directed his own English translation of the play at Stanford University.

Huang Lei plays with his actress wife in Lai's most popular play The Peach Blossom Land.
