What does "social drama" mean?

Social drama is a dramatic activity about religion and customs in society. It is very popular among the people of China. Social drama originated from the ceremonies and celebrations of ancient official or private clubs. With the diversification of drama forms, the forms of social drama are becoming more and more diversified.

Due to the subdivision and specialization of various drama forms, acrobatics, national drama and other drama forms gradually matured independently, and then these professional drama teams were integrated into local social drama performances in the form of cooperation or invitation.

A drama activity related to religions and customs in society is of great significance in rewarding gods and praying for blessings, cultural entertainment or business. Representative areas include Shaoxing social drama, Huanggang social drama and Anshun local drama.

Extended data:

Social drama is dominated by traditional famous dramas such as Shao Opera, Yue Opera and Shaoxing Lotus Falls, with strong local characteristics. Shao Opera used to be full of literature and drama, but in order to cater to the lively psychology of the audience, many juggling and fighting scenes were added to lengthen the plot.

Ping 'an Opera is also popular among Shaoxing people, and has been praised by Mr. Lu Xun for many times. In Impermanence, some words are spoken in Shaoxing dialect. For example, Shaoxing pronounces "so" of "what"; "Eating" and "holy shit" mean "mine". Shaoxing sounds all rhyme and pronounce.

This makes it humorous and makes the audience laugh.
