Peking Opera

The Performance Behind the Painted Faces

Więcej o książce

Peking Opera is not an indigenous theatrical form of Beijing, but rather a new genre formed through the mutual borrowing of Southern Chinese artists and Han dialect performers, incorporating the strengths of various theatrical styles present in Beijing at the time. With a history of over two hundred years, Peking Opera is rooted in the rich soil of Eastern culture, fundamentally differing from Western drama. Modern audiences may initially feel a sense of distance, finding it difficult to understand. However, once one grasps the artistic characteristics and cultural connotations of Peking Opera, it becomes intriguing, and one might suddenly find themselves in love with it upon hearing its melodies.
