Painted Ladies & Opium Dreams: Shanghai’s Forgotten Underworld

Step back into the lost world of colonial Shanghai, where beauty and danger walked hand in hand.
Tonight, we journey through smoke-filled opium dens and glittering nightclubs — a city where every secret was painted over in silk and perfume.
Meet the Painted Ladies — women who turned survival into art, and illusion into power.
Their faces were flawless, their laughter intoxicating, but behind the makeup and music lay a story of control, addiction, and forgotten dreams.

As you listen, let the soft hum of the past carry you into a world of whispered promises, opium smoke, and fading lantern light.
Close your eyes… this is history told through the calm silence of the night.
