Fanshen, a play by English playwright David Hare [1], adapted in 1975 from William Hinton's 1967 book of the same title. Hare examines a revolution - the Chinese - almost entirely in terms of its words, new and old. While Fanshen contains scattered gunfire, it generally portrays a nation's violent upheaval by showing us how one community searches for the language that's needed to institute a new order.
