After a remarkable success last September, "The Life Attitude of Two Dogs" will be back on stage in Guangzhou for three nights starting Mar 31st with the original cast.

After fleeing the countryside, two dogs named Wang Cai and Lai Fu (literally meaning "wealthy" and "good luck" in Chinese), travel to city in search of happiness and full of dreams. However, they soon find things aren't as wonderful as they imagined. The dogs, sometimes loved, sometimes abandoned, philosophize about many issues: poverty, love affairs, fake LV, , transgenic vegetables, endowment insurance...

To earn a living, they try different jobs – they become street performers, participate in talent shows, even security guards. After being adopted by a rich family they are then abandoned and return to living on the streets. However these two friends never loose hope...

Director Jinghui Meng (孟京辉), now working for the China National Drama Theater, is the most influential experimental drama director in Asia. Some of his best plays are Rhinoceros In Love, Amber, One Hundred Years of Solitude.
