Overview

Set over 1,500 years ago during a time of war and unrest, Mulan tells the story of a young woman who dares to challenge the limits placed on her.

When her aging father is called to battle, Mulan disguises herself as a man and takes his place in the army. What begins as an act of filial love becomes a journey of courage, identity, and destiny.
Through lyrical dance, powerful martial arts, and cinematic staging, the production follows Mulan’s transformation—from a spirited village girl to a soldier who survives harsh training, forms unbreakable bonds, and ultimately saves her nation with intelligence and bravery.

More than a legend, Mulan is a story about choosing your own path, defying expectations, and discovering that true strength has no gender.

A visually stunning and emotionally moving dance-drama, this production celebrates heroism, family, and the timeless human desire for freedom and honor.
