Princeton senior Sandra Chen presents a staged reading of her new English translation of Nick Rongjun Yu’s (喻荣军 ) contemporary play, House Guest (家客), in which a man suddenly returns after a 40-year disappearance and becomes a guest in the house of his past wife and her new husband… at least in one timeline. This is a story that honors an elder generation of contemporary Chinese intellectuals, that interrogates individual fate and societal legacy, that contemplates how we are shaped by the choices we make. Directed by Princeton junior Icey Siyi Ai.
