Chaosi opera has been practicing the child actor system in the past, in which the child actor, the green coat and the flower girl were all taken up by child artists, who were eliminated when their voices changed after they grew up, and this system seriously hampered the development of the art of chaosi opera. After the founding of New China, the child actor system was abolished, and in all aspects of the reform, training a large number of outstanding actors and actresses, so that this ancient art of Teochew Opera has a new luster.
