I want to live, to live well, to live like them.'Bunny, a young woman from the officially designated 'Shangri-La' in the Himalayan foothills of China's Yunnan Province, has witnessed her family's livelihood destroyed by mass tourism. She dreams of escape as a globe-trotting photographer.But what happens when the only thing you have to sell is your culture?

The play premiered at the Finborough Theatre, London, in 2016.
