- ... that the Spring Willow Society probably staged the first full-length Shakespearean play in China?

The significance of Lu's Othello also lies in the fact that it was most likely the first production of a full Shakespearean play in China, not a dramatization based on Lin Shu's influential rendition of the Lambs' Tales from Shakespeare.
