For more than two millennia, the romance of Zhou Wenjun and Sima Xiangru have inspired numerous literary and artistic interpretations. Playwright Xu Fen recasts this story featuring only Zhuo as the principal character. Through the depiction of Zhuo’s feelings about life and love, this production arrives at quite an unconventional conclusion. The emphasis on emotions, however, connects both past and present by sentiments that are universal.
Zhuo Wenjun has no set, nor does it use the standard props of one-table-two-chairs, yet the scenery is beautiful because the abstract stage of traditional xiqu opens to even freer imagination. The aesthetic experience is further enhanced by a supporting cast of beautiful women. Musically, Xu employs a new approach to vocal delivery, quoting traditional tune-types (Man Ting Fang, Jiang Tou Gui, Ren Huang Long, Yi Zhi Hua, Shua Hai Er, Qing Nao Ao and Deng Diao) enriched by modern compositional techniques, sometimes even referencing the Sichuan narrative “Yangqin” style.
Since Zhuo and Sima were members of the intellectual class, this production is filled with beauty, elegance and literary flair. However, the genre of Sichuan opera is in no way diluted, retaining its “stunning, spicy and hot” nature.
All in all, although this new work never veers away from its nature as Sichuan opera, it fuses legacy and progress, classic and new trends, literature and drama, elegancy and popularism, beauty and discernment, song and dance perfectly.

[View] Stepping into Hong Kong Disneyland is like a fairy tale. The projects here are rich, the Star Wars speed shuttle is exciting and exciting, the forest river trip is mysterious and interesting, the magic snow world is super restored, and the ice and snow theme is super shocking. [Fun] Duffy&#39;s interaction with friends is super cute, and the actors are warm and kind. The cruise and the castle fireworks show are also not to be missed, and the music and lighting are super romantic.

The peak tram and views at the peak were great. The tram is surprisingly fast and had nice views with some optional illusions of the tall buildings.

The service of booking this red diamond is very worthwhile to avoid a longer queue. There are many people going to the top of the mountain, and there are many people waiting for the cable car to go up the mountain, but the scenery above is really beautiful!

The Hong Kong Palace Museum of Culture is highly recommended. The exhibition classification tour route is clear and reasonable, and a large number of digital audio and video outputs are used to let people understand the history to be presented. It is great!
