China Rose is an operetta in two acts with music by A. Baldwin Sloane, and both lyrics and book by Harry L. Cort and George E. Stoddard. The work premiered on Broadway at the Martin Beck Theatre on January 19, 1925. In the midst of its Broadway run the production transferred twice, first to Wallack's Theatre and then the Knickerbocker Theatre. The production ended its run at the latter theatre on May 9, 1925; closing after 120 performances.

The Broadway production was directed by R. H. Burnside and co-produced by Martin Beck, John Cort, and Charles Dillingham. It starred baritone J. Harold Murray as Cha Ming, the Prince of Manchuria, and Olga Steck as the prince's love interest, Ro See, a.k.a the "China Rose". It was the final stage work created by A. Baldwin Sloane.
