PEKING OPERA FESTIVAL
|
Watching an authentic Peking Opera
outside China is a seldom opportunity. It is an art that most people know by
name, but have never seen before. Peking Opera is more than just music and
singing; it also combines drama, dancing, martial arts and acrobatics, which
makes it one of the most multifaceted theatrical forms in the world. In 2010 Peking
Opera was declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO. The
Peking Opera Festival offers a
fine selection of original plays accompanied by an introduction to some of
the key facts about Peking Opera. Basic background knowledge about the
meaning of typical gestures, the abundant make-up and elaborate costumes help
the audience understand the fundamentals of this mysterious genre.
