What are the important types of opera in China, as well as their names and roles

According to incomplete statistics, there are about three hundred and sixty varieties of Chinese opera in various ethnic regions of China, with tens of thousands of traditional repertoires. After the founding of the People's Republic of China and the emergence of many adapted traditional repertoire, new historical drama and modern theater to express the themes of modern life, are warmly welcomed by the audience. The more popular and famous types of theater are: Beijing opera, Kunqu opera, Yueju opera, Yu opera, Xiangju opera, Cantonese opera, Qinqiang, Sichuan opera, appraisal, Jin opera, Han opera, Chaoju opera, Fujian opera, Qi opera, Hebei opera, Huangmei opera, Hunan flower-drum opera ...... and so on more than fifty types of theater, especially the Beijing opera is the most popular, all over the country, regardless of the regional limitations.

According to legend, there were four major types of theater in Beijing in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, namely, the Southern Kun, the Northern Eagle, the Eastern Willow, and the Western Bang. According to the record of the eighth year of the Jiaqing: "There is a Ming started Kun cavity, the ocean is full of ears, and Eagle, bang, qin, willow cavity, the north and south of the prosperous meeting, the sheng chime the same sound, singing and dancing, the actors and actresses gathered, and no sense of the Beijing." Also explains the historical situation. Among the so-called South Kun that is popular in the area of Kunshan in the South Kunshan cavity; North Eagle Guide to the combination of theater and Northern Qu, produced in Jiangxi Yiyang area of Yiyang cavity, that is, passed to the north to form the high cavity, that is, then prevalent in the capital of the Beijing cavity; East Willow that is popular in the Shandong Liuzi cavity; West bang is naturally the northwest of China's widely circulated clapper, which is also known as Qin腔. This illustrates the grandeur of the four sides of the East, West, South, North and South artists gathered in Beijing.

From the current point of view, the above four cavities have far exceeded their original scope, some have long been throughout the country in many provinces, Yiyang cavity (i.e., high腔), but also in Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hunan, Hubei, Fujian, Guangdong, Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hebei, widely spread, and therefore the people concerned that this statement is not scientific, but the historical formation of this statement is still objectively reflecting the historical facts. Historical facts. From the current distribution of opera genres, Kun Opera still has a considerable audience base in Shanghai, Nanjing, Zhejiang and Hunan. Yiyangqiang not only took root in the north, from the Qianlong period, in the capital, "six famous classes, nine city rotation", but also on the Beijing Opera and the formation of a number of northern opera plays an important role in the formation of the influence of the circulating in the Jiangnan area is also mainly in many northern language areas. Although Liuziqiang (including the Liuqin opera influenced by it) is popular in Henan, northern Jiangsu, southern Hebei and northern Anhui, its important activities are still in Qufu, Tai'an and Linyi in Shandong. Qinqiang (i.e. Shan-Shaanxi Opera) and its development from Shanxi, Henan, Hebei and other places of the clapper chamber although so far prevalent in the north, but we see in Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi and other places of the Qinqiang has a deeper, more ancient roots and a wider audience, so that the "South Kun, North Eagle, East Liou, West bang" is a historical basis for the statement. historical basis.
