Soul of Shaolin On Broadway

The Soul of Shaolin is an exciting and history-making show that opened on Broadway last Thursday, January 15th, at the Marquis Theatre. The limited-engagement run will span 24 performances in celebration of the Chinese or Lunar New Year - the year of the Ox - which takes place a week from today: Monday, January 26. The show is about a young boy, Hui Gang. When a war separates him from his mother, Hui is taken to a Shaolin temple by monks and grows up to become a master of Shaolin Kung Fu. It is a story of self-discovery surrounding the art of Shaolin Kung Fu.

This is also a historical event, marking the first time that a production from the People’s Republic of China has appeared on Broadway. 33 Chinese nationals are featured in the production, all highly skilled in the art of Shaolin Kung Fu. This form of Chinese martial art has been featured in films such as  Fearless and Shaolin Temple. This exciting event is the only one of its kind on Broadway, and with such a limited-time showing it is certain to be selling out fast.
