Overview

In the Tianle Yuan Grand Theater, a cultural landmark in Dongcheng District, Beijing, a Peking opera extravaganza that blends national essence inheritance with innovative experience is slowly unfolding. This theater, which carries a century of Peking opera memories, is creating an immersive Peking opera cultural experience venue for opera fans and cultural enthusiasts with the concept of "making classics live in the present". The activities launched by Tianle Yuan Grand Theater take innovative Peking opera excerpts as the core, and select wonderful fragments from classic repertoires such as "Farewell My Concubine" and "San Cha Kou". While retaining the essence of Peking opera's stylized performance, it integrates modern aesthetic perspectives to give the ancient singing and gestures a new vitality. At the same time, it is matched with Pipa performances, using the melodious melodies of traditional folk music to pave the artistic conception for Peking opera performances, and also sets up a traditional costume experience session, where audiences can try on Peking opera costumes under professional guidance and personally feel the unique charm of "Phoenix Crown and Xiapei" and "Kaojia Rongzhuang". From repertoire viewing to artistic interaction, from auditory feast to immersive experience, it presents the profound heritage and innovative expression of Peking opera art in an all-round way. The collision of classics and innovation: It not only has authentic Peking opera singing, gestures, and facial makeup art, but also integrates modern creativity into stage presentation and plot interpretation, allowing old opera fans to taste their feelings and new audiences to understand the fun. Multi-dimensional sensory immersion: The visual impact of Peking opera performances (gorgeous costumes, exquisite facial makeup), auditory enjoyment (the folk music symphony of Jinghu and Pipa), and the tactile interaction of costume experience create a full-dimensional cultural immersion of "eyes, ears, nose, and body". The cultural heritage of the century-old theater: Tianle Yuan Grand Theater itself is a witness to the history of Peking opera. The antique architectural style and the viewing layout of the traditional theater make each experience feel like traveling back to the golden age of Peking opera a hundred years ago, with a full cultural atmosphere. Zero-distance art interaction: The costume experience session breaks the boundary between the stage and the audience. Professionals explain the meaning of the patterns and the details of wearing Peking opera costumes on site, allowing the audience to change from "bystanders" to "participants", deeply perceiving the ingenuity of Peking opera culture.
