[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] The original musical 'Mia Famiglia,' produced by the performance planning company Hong Company, will be performed in Shanghai, China at the end of this month.

The Chinese production company Focustage signed a licensing agreement with Hong Company earlier this year and plans to stage the performance at Focustage's dedicated theater in Shanghai.

The Chinese performance of 'Mia Famiglia' will be the first small theater musical in China to be performed in an open-run format. Starting with the Shanghai performance, a tour is also scheduled from the second half of 2020 in Beijing, Chengdu, and other cities.

Focustage, the Chinese production company, was founded in 2018. It has presented licensed performances of musicals such as 'Black Mary Poppins' and 'Mr. Mouse (Flowers for Algernon)' in China.

'Mia Famiglia' is a work depicting the commotion of three men from different worlds?a pair of vaudeville actors preparing for the last show at the 1930s New York bar 'Apollonia' and a mafia member who appears before them?creating a performance together.

The musical 'Mia Famiglia' was first premiered in Korea in 2013, produced by MJ Starfish. Last year, after five years, Hong Company presented the show with a new look, and on June 9th, it resumed performances at Yes24 Stage Hall 2. 'Mia Famiglia' continues its success in this season's rerun, and the production company Hong Company extended the performance period by one week. 'Mia Famiglia' is scheduled to run until the 30th.
