Empress of the Great Tang: The Story
Shaanxi Tourism Corporation presents China’s first Tang Dynasty dance and music show: "Empress of the Great Tang". The story is based on the life of the famous historical figure in China: Empress Wu Ze-tian of the Tang Dynasty(618-907 CE). — Premiered in July of 2016.

Empress Wu was born in 624 CE and became a concubine of the Taizong Emperor when she was only 14 years old. After Taizong died, she was sent to a Buddhist monastery to be a nun for several years until she was called back to the palace by the new emperor Gaozong who was then the crown prince that she had befriended when she was in the palace. Years of living in the palace had made her tough and smart. With her wisdom, talents and persistence, she managed to become the first wife of the emperor soon and in 690 CE eventually ascended the throne to be the empress in her own right after her husband died.

With a classical Chinese live orchestra and a state-of-art stage design, this five-part dance and music show will bring back to us the legendary Empress Wu Ze-tian and the glory and splendor of the Great Tang Empire.

The night is kicked off with a royal banquet, emperor style as master chefs prepare the famed Tang Dynasty-style fusion cuisine. After dinner, stage is set for a magical night!
