What are the dramas?

Drama includes drama, opera, ballet, musical, puppet show and so on.

The world drama art first appeared in ancient Greece near the Aegean Sea about 2400 years ago.

Drama refers to the general name of stage performance art that achieves narrative purpose in the form of language, action, dance, music and puppet. The concept of drama in literature refers to the script created for drama performance, that is, the script. There are various forms of theatrical performances, including drama, opera, ballet, musical, puppet show and so on. Drama is a comprehensive art in which actors play roles and perform stories in public on the stage.

Drama combines many art forms with one standard, including poetry, music and dance. Poetry refers to literature, music refers to music accompaniment, and dance refers to performance. In addition, it also includes stage art, clothing, makeup and so on. At the same time, China traditional opera takes singing, reading, doing and playing as the basic means, and almost integrates all kinds of performing arts elements into one set. Opera actors must master the "four skills and five methods" ("four skills" refer to singing, reading, doing and playing, and "five methods" refer to hands, eyes, body and steps).
