Madame Mao’s Memories
Written by Henry Ong, Madame Mao’s Memories is a picture of life in prison with the woman who enslaved China in order to liberate herself. It is not a documentary account of the life and times of Jiang Qing. Neither does it pass judgment on the woman who became famous (or perhaps notorious) throughout the world through her attempts to destroy China’s centuries-old culture, killing many in the process. Through the medium of a one-woman show, it is a portrait of a human being, of facts combined with imagination.
