Opening in December 2014, The Han show pays tribute to the essence of Han culture.

The lantern-shaped theater that houses the show has forever changed the urban landscape of Wuhan, capital of the Hubei Province. Inspired by the typical lines of the so-called “red lanterns”, the theater was designed by world-renowned architect Mark Fisher and his team at Stufish. The theater is more than 70 meters high and 100 meters wide on each side offers pedestrians and spectators a real outdoor show with the ballet of lights illuminating its facade.

At the beginning of each performance the 2000 spectators discover the swimming pool, which holds 10 million liters of water, hidden under the stage thanks to a unique system that allows the seats to move, modifying the configuration of the room. (wikipedia)
