Costume, dance, song and drum - Beijing

Do not miss an entertaining night at the world famous Beijing Opera. Usually there is a story of a Chinese legend or historical episode. The Monkey King is one of my favorites. Colorful makeup with different bright costume and exaggerated eye movement and body gestures. Dancing and acrobatic jumps with fans or swords.

There is also individual sopra, tenor or base singing by individual performers which get hearty response from the audience.

Theme: Theater

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
