At first, it was just a folk art of "singing and enjoying yourself". /kloc-In the late 8th century, relatively orthodox folk operas were formed in the neighboring areas of Anhui, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces. It originated in Huangmei area at the junction of Hubei, Anhui and Jiangxi provinces, and was introduced to neighboring Huaining County in Anhui Province in the late Qing Dynasty. Combining with local folk art, it sings white in Anqing dialect and gradually develops into a new kind of drama, which was once called "Huai Qiang" and "Hui Opera".

Second, Huangmei Opera developed from song and dance to "two plays" and "three plays" in the early stage of its formation, and then it absorbed a popular rap art called "Luohanzhuang" and was influenced by Qingyang Opera and Tan Qiang Opera, forming a complete story of this kind of opera. The repertoires accumulated during the period from the last years of Qianlong in Qing Dynasty to around the Revolution of 1911 are called "thirty-six major dramas and 72% discount on minor dramas". Drama mostly shows the life segments of rural laborers, and Huangmei Opera in this period is basically a literary form for rural laborers to entertain themselves.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Huangmei Opera developed rapidly, from a popular folk opera in Anqing to a local opera in Anhui.
