It has been staged more than 1,300times before workers, peasants, youth and students and working peoplefrom all other walks of life and foreigners and overseas compatriotsand millions of people have enjoyed it.
As it teaches the truth that the exploited and oppressed should turnout on the road of struggle and revolution in order to carve out theirdestiny, the revolutionary opera has gripped the hearts of the peoplefor its ever-increasing attraction and vitality.
The opera is based on the profound seed theory that a flower girlselling flowers out of sorrow and filial piety eventually comes out ina struggle and revolution. it raises a serious socio-political issuethat any devotion and sympathy can't save the destiny of the poorincluding the family of Kottbun in a society where exploitation andoppression prevail.
