Hear the tale of Little Tiger, a young woman forced to flee China during the Taiping Rebellion in the 1860s. For her protection she disguises herself as a man, and finds employment working on the construction of Central Pacific Railroad following the California Gold Rush, setting explosive charges in the granite rock along the route.
It is a one-woman show with a compelling story that needs to be told.
The play is a magnificent tale of hope and betrayal on two continents. It does not necessarily have a happy ending, but it does close on a note of optimism after Little Tiger must choose between revenge and forgiveness.
