The Monkey King, beloved figure from Chinese mythology, swings onto the stage in San Francisco
A mischievous hero from Chinese legend is taking center stage in a new opera. He’s been a comic-book star, an animated hero, and even the subject of poetry by Mao Zedong. Now, the Monkey King, famous for his rebellious spirit, is making his operatic debut. (AP Video: Haven Daley)

🐵 The Monkey King is our ambitious, headstrong hero. Seen here in Act II Scene III, Monkey, played by Kang Wang 王亢 , jumps from Buddha’s palm. He flies farther than ever before and finds himself in the Land of Bliss, where peace fills his heart.

🎼 Listen as the Monkey King (Kang Wang) recalls his birth, bursting from a stone. He discovers a tribe of Monkeys, threatened by enemies on all sides. (Act I Scene I) 💭 "...the tenor Kang Wang made a nimble, engaging Monkey. Even with Huiwang Zhang’s dancer-double and one of Twist’s most vividly characterised puppets echoing him, it fell to Wang to define Monkey’s cheekily mocking physical presence while projecting into a brightly heroic upper range. His lithe singing, a study in self-confiden

David Henry Hwang wrote the libretto for THE MONKEY KING which will premiere at San Francisco Opera on November 14-30, 2025. #Repost • @carolynkuan.conductor and @thedavidhenryhwang Two weeks into rehearsals for @sfopera’s #worldpremiere of #MonkeyKing by @huang.ruo & @thedavidhenryhwang. One of the best parts of conducting new operas is collaborating with incredible artists from other disciplines. I am now a fan girl of @basiltwist3 — a third-generation puppeteer with wild creativity and heart.
