Mr. Lao She's plays include Teahouse, Longxugou, Earth Dragon Snake, Peach and Plum Spring Breeze, etc. Take the teahouse as an example:

Teahouse, the name of China's drama, is one of Lao She's representative works. All the stories in the play took place in a teahouse in Beijing. People come and go in the teahouse, and people of all colors gather. A big teahouse is a small society. Mr. Lao She grasped the characteristics of this scene, condensed the images of 57 primary and secondary figures in Teahouse for half a century, showed the life scenes of three times after the failure of the Reform Movement of 1898 in the late Qing Dynasty, the separatist period of the Northern Warlords in the early Republic of China and the eve of the collapse of the Kuomintang regime, summarized the sharp opposition and conflict of various social strata and forces in China, and revealed the historical fate of semi-feudal and semi-colonial China. This play is also a classic of Beijing People's Art Theater. China's plays are of milestone significance and enjoy a high reputation overseas. Later, it was adapted into a movie and TV series of the same name many times.

The drama Teahouse is an immortal masterpiece created by the famous writer Lao She. It is a three-act play script, which was completed on 1957. 1958 is directed by Jiao Juyin and Xia Chun, starring Yu Shizhi, Zheng Rong, Lan Tianye, Ying Ruocheng and Huang Zongluo. Based on the rise and fall of a big teahouse in old Beijing, the whole play shows people the social features of Beijing and the different fates of people from all walks of life during the 50 years from the late Qing Dynasty to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

The story tells that Wang Lifa, the owner of the teahouse, is bent on making his father's teahouse prosperous, so he goes out to socialize. However, the harsh reality makes the boss often ridiculed. Finally, it was swallowed up by a ruthless society. Qin, a national capitalist who frequented teahouses, went from ambitious industrial salvation to bankruptcy; Chang Yesi, the son of the generous Eight Banners, embarked on the road of self-reliance after the demise of the Qing Dynasty. The story also reveals the living conditions of some small people such as pockmarked Liu.

In the era when the Qing Dynasty was about to perish, Yutai Teahouse in Beijing was still a scene of "prosperity": caged birds, fortune-telling, selling antiques and jade articles, and playing cricket.

Wang Lifa, a smart young shopkeeper, is taken care of by all parties. However, behind this "prosperity" lies the suffocating decline of the whole society: foreign goods flooded the market, the countryside went bankrupt, eunuchs married, and patriots were arrested.

In the early years of the Republic of China, the people suffered from years of civil war. All the big teahouses in Beijing are closed. Only Wang Zhanggui has improved its management, turned the backyard of the teahouse into an apartment rented to college students, and put a phonograph in the main hall.

Nevertheless, social unrest spread to the teahouse: refugees blocked the door, soldiers took the shopkeeper's money, and detectives came to extort money from time to time.

Thirty years later, Wang Zhanggui, who was in his twilight years, was still desperately supporting the teahouse, and the Japanese surrendered. However, the Kuomintang and American imperialism plunged the people into the disaster of civil war, jeeps rampaged, patriots were suppressed, and rogue agents occupied the teahouse that Wang Zhanggui had painstakingly managed all his life. Wang Lifa is desperate.

At this time, two friends who made friends 50 years ago happened to come. One is Mr. Chang, who was arrested by the Qing court, and the other is Mr. Qin, who completely collapsed in business for half his life. The three old people scattered the paper money they found all over the floor, crying and laughing sadly ... Finally, Wang Lifa was left alone, picked up his belt, stepped into the inner room, looked up at the roof, and looked for a place where he could safely end his life.
