University students stage original modern drama
My Brother in 1919, a modern drama produced by students at China-France School of Renmin University of China Suzhou Campus, was staged in the lecture hall of Dushu Lake Community College on Dec 22, aimed at lighting the youths' passion for fulfilling their social responsibilities.
The drama, consisting of 11 scenes, tells a century-spanning story about two generations of overseas Chinese students who tried to serve their motherland with knowledge and experience learned in France.
The drama is expected to enhance contemporary youths' awareness of their responsibilities for the country and encourage them to do their bit for the country and their compatriots with what they have learnt in schools.
The performance was followed by a symposium, where the production crew and the audiences held discussions about the drama and its revelations.
