Sumario:The Chinatown opera house provided Chinese immigrants with an essential source of entertainment during the pre World War II era. But its stories of loyalty, obligation, passion, and duty also attracted diverse patrons into Chinese American communities. Drawing on a wealth of Chinese and English-language research, Nancy Yunhwa Rao tells the story of iconic theatre companies and the networks and migrations that made Chinese opera a part of North American cultures.
