So difficult to catch a show in China -vvv vvz

A few days ago, I chanced upon an interview on Channel News Asia. The person being interviewed was none other than 杨丽萍, goddess of dance. My first thoughts were "Whoa! Why is she on TV? Is she coming to Singapore?! Need to go check it out asap!". I was rather excited because having missed the opportunity to catch her 《云南映象》 show, I was hoping I could catch any of her shows before she retires from stage.

As it turns out, I had no such luck. Nope, she's not coming to Singapore. But she has a new show this year; it's the next big thing after 《云南映象》 and it's called 《藏谜》. It opens in Chengdu, which happens to be where I'm going in November! But alas, I am 3 months late. Anyway, I doubt I can get my hands on any tickets since ticketing information is so sparse on the internet! Why the heck is China still using telephone booking system?!

Supposedly, after their performance tour, the 《藏谜》 team will be permanently based in a specially built theatre at Jiuzhaigou. Maybe I'll have better luck when I go to Jiuzhaigou next time. Until then, the best I can get are these YouTube clips.
