Chinese opera, with its roots in folk society, evolved over time as literati and scholars contributed to its creation, elevating it from folk culture to an elegant art form within the grand tradition of Chinese culture. This art form holds a special allure, encompassing tragic, desolate, gorgeous, and disillusioned themes, portraying the nuances of life. From the portrayal of birth, death, purity, and ugliness to the makeup and emotional depth on stage, Chinese opera captures the essence of human experience and the spectrum of emotions.
