BEIJING, June 30 (Xinhua) -- The following are a selection of shows available in Beijing in the coming week:

Offering

Date: July 3-4

Time: 7:30 p.m.

Place: Theatre, National Center for the Performing Arts

Introduction: The performance is expected to present a dialogue between the mystery of water and its significance. Water is the source of all life. From tears to morning dew, and from blood to rivers, water exists among everything. Similarly, in real life, people cannot avoid various circumstances, such as joy, sorrows, separations and reunions accompanied by birth, death, illness and aging. In an unpredictable future, how can we look for inspiration or energy such as water? Such thinking inspired the creation of "Offering."
