The World of Extreme Happiness (Modern Plays)

When Sunny is born in rural China, her parents leave her in a slop bucket to die because she's a girl. She survives, and at 14 leaves for the city, where she works a low-paying factory job and attends self-help classes to improve her chances at securing a coveted office position. When Sunny's attempts to pull herself out of poverty lead to dire consequences for a fellow worker, she is forced to question the system she's spent her life trying to master â€“ and stand up against the powers that be.

Savage, tragic and desperately funny, The World of Extreme Happiness is a stirring examination of a country in the midst of rapid change, and individuals struggling to shape their own destinies.

This new edition is published to coincide with the Us premiere of the play at the Goodman Theatre, Chicago, which then transfers to the Manhattan Theater Club, Nyc.
