'Stick a woman in fatigues, put a wrench in her hand, an axe, a machine gun they're just props, unless she can live her life freely take lovers, have abortions, make art not babies!' Two penniless actresses meet at auditions for a production of Ibsen's A Doll's House in Shanghai and they quickly become inseparable. As political upheaval rips through China, their tumultuous friendship will alter not only the course of their lives, but the course of history. One will become China's first female theatre director. The other, the architect of the Cultural Revolution. Amy Ng's play Shanghai Dolls tells the untold true story of two of the most influential women in Chinese history Madame Mao and Sun Weishi and how the personal truly is political. It opened at Kiln Theatre, London, in 2025, in association with Paines Plough, directed by Katie Posner.
