The spirit of Charlie Chaplin lives on in his granddaughter—dancer and acrobat Aurelia Thierree. Her fantasy stage-show ‘Murmurs’—also known as‘What the Walls are Saying' — is coming soon to China.

The humorous and sentimental show has been described as a modern-day ‘Alice in Wonderland’, combining dance, acrobatics, magic, and mime. Thierree plays a curious woman who wanders through a world of illusion, where ordinary objects magically come alive or transform into fantastical creatures.

The show was first performed in the UK back in 2011, and it will debut at Beijing's Mei Lanfang Grand Theater before touring to Shanghai and Guangzhou.
