Peking opera

One of the largest opera is a Chinese traditional art of flower. Western Opera Theatre of Performing Arts and the biggest difference is that it's symbolic, virtual sex. In the opera, the representative of a horse whip, two chairs stacked up that hill, two flags on behalf of a folder or a sedan car, a symbol of four soldiers walk around the stage a powerful army troops. Sometimes entirely without props, such as opening the door, the window, stairs, etc. with only some token gestures or movements to express. This kind of virtual behalf of the real, symbolic in a sense, the performing arts more real than real lifelike moving received artistic effect.

Such as the famous "Autumn River" is a description of the old girls take the helm of the ship working the case. Neither water boat on the stage, thanks to the excellent actors simulate boating and boat performance situation, with the facial movements of a boat in the air of the storm scene in the emergency line vividly reflected. Famous military drama "Divergence", the actors on stage lights brightly lit night fighting, it seems unreasonable and difficult to produce realistic. But because the performers of the night fighting accurately represents the characteristics and patterns of movement, the audience looks like a really dark night in the pitch-dark as in the fighting.

Because the art of Peking Opera has its own special charm, so not only loved by Chinese people, but also go beyond the language barrier for the viewing audience around the world.
