poster for the Shenzhen Youth Opera production 2016

The Savage Land (原野 Yuanye[1]) is a 1987 Chinese-language western-style opera by composer Jin Xiang[2] to a libretto by Wan Fang (万方 born 1952)[3] after her own father Cao Yu's 1937 play The Wilderness (also 原野 Yuanye). It was performed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington in 1992,[4] in 1997 at the Saarländisches Staatstheater [de] in Saarbrücken under the baton of You-Sheng Lin,[5] then again in Vancouver in 1998.[6][7][8] Shenzhen Youth Opera presented Jin Xiang's work in 2016.
