Peking Opera is China's national treasure, is it popular abroad?

Peking Opera is very much out of the country, Master Mei Lanfang has taken Peking Opera to England and America. Nowadays, many excellent Peking Opera troupes also have arrangements for exchange performances abroad every year.

The Peking Opera, as a national treasure of China, is not liked by the vast majority of the general public, regardless of whether they are Chinese or foreigners. The Peking Opera was discovered by foreigners as early as the Qing Dynasty, but so far it has not had much of an impact on modern opera. It shows that as a stage art, Peking Opera itself does not have an advantage over other forms of stage performance.

Black American art, before Martin Luther King Jr, black Americans have been subjected to institutional discrimination and oppression, but black art, jazz hiphop and so on is very popular, the influence is more than the United States domestic. Plus there are so many people in China, most of whom can't understand Peking Opera without subtitles, let alone foreigners. It's very difficult for foreigners to achieve a true love of Peking Opera. If Peking Opera has the same infectious power as any other performing art, why can't it make enough of an impact on the world that even young Chinese people don't like it?

The main thing is that Peking Opera can't fit into modern life and can't create a sense of immersion. None of the traditional plays, roles, or voices would allow a modern audience to form a sense of empathy based on their own life experiences, but note that in the late Qing Dynasty, when they were created, they were perfectly suited to the context and mentality of the time. The social structure and even the official positions are all set up in the Qing Dynasty, as they were in the past.

This is why Peking Opera became almost a pop culture at the time, with everyone from princes and ministers to foot soldiers and peddlers humming a few lines and "watching with tears in their eyes" or "red in their faces".

And now, even if it is a senior ticket users, most of them are obsessed with the technique, not seen a few of the work itself to express the character and expression of the emotions produced **** Ming.

So Peking Opera, whether in a foreign country or in China, is very difficult to arouse the ****ing of most people.
