For Meng, Shenzhen, a major city in Guangdong province, is a young and vibrant city.
The city, which neighbors Hong Kong, has grown from a fishing village into a modern metropolis after former leader Deng Xiaoping launched the country's reform and opening-up policy 40 years ago.
Meng's plays are not the only highlights of the Futian event as there are other Chinese plays on the performance list too.
Among them are The Karaoke Pig, written and directed by Chen Minghao, and Macbeth, adapted from William Shakespeare's tragedy, by director Ding Yiteng. For those looking for something different, there is a performance workshop by Spanish theater company Aula3.
