未完成的喜剧

Also known as Wiewnacheng de xiju, 没有完成的喜剧, Mei you wan cheng de xi ju, Meiyou wancheng de xiju, The Unfinished Comedy

Two famous comedians from pre-Revolution days perform a series of sketches in a theatre for a group of Party cadres. The stage performances blend over into absurdist, self-contained fantasy episodes where the two comics allegorically parody Party propaganda and ideological orthodoxy.
