Comment: The story of the play The Purple Stone Street of Water Margin remains faithful to the book Water Margin to a certain extent. More than that, the director Jun Wan tried many innovative approaches in this play, including the creative technique 3-D projection. The stage design and the music are full of modern elements. The chief actress Jinlian Pan is beautiful. Moreover, the opening of the play is intensive, with the taste of a little bit of pop music. I was addicted to it at once. Jun Wan, the composer, the lyricist, the screenwriter and the director of this play, combined the Chinese traditional story with the foreign musical patterns. He said he has done a satisfactory job.
