Introduction to local operas:

Local operas are popular in a certain area, which is the general name of operas with local characteristics. On the one hand, local opera is an important part of China's intangible cultural heritage; On the other hand, local operas are different from other intangible cultural heritages. This is because local opera is a "living" form of traditional cultural expression, which not only inherits certain historical and cultural traditions, but also looks forward to the creative transformation of cultural traditions in expressing the spirit of the times.

Characteristics of local operas:

The characteristics of local operas are reflected in music, dance, costumes, makeup, unique skills, plots and many other aspects, and dialects are not the only characteristics. The idea of defending and sticking to dialects in traditional Chinese opera is a reflection of agricultural thinking and ancient thinking. Phonetic reform is the key factor for Beijing Opera and Kunqu Opera to become national operas. In order to expand the influence of local operas, language reform is necessary.

The more diverse the culture, the better. The more operas, the better. The integration of traditional Chinese opera is beneficial to the development of traditional Chinese opera. As an intangible cultural heritage, traditional Chinese opera should be dynamically protected and encouraged to compete with Putonghua. Only by focusing on the needs of the audience and relying on the charm of art can China opera gain market competitiveness.
