Rural opera, crowded with elderly people, where will the opera culture go?

Mondo Tourism Updated on 2024-02-06

Recently, in the process of photography, I was fortunate to meet the Yichuan County Yu Opera Troupe to perform in the countryside, and I saw the villagers running around to tell each other, and the enthusiasm for watching the play was very high, and the audience was crowded, but one trend I photographed was worrying.

The audience was crowded, and the people watching the play were all elderly.

This county troupe is particularly popular, the performance kicked off in the beautiful and passionate rhyme, the gorgeous costume lineup, the style of this generation of Henan opera people, vividly displayed, wonderful performance deeply moved every audience.

The level of the county troupe is indeed extraordinary, and the audience is full of praise.

Some people say that the traditional opera is becoming more and more depressed, and there are fewer and fewer people who like it, and I have seen the scene with my own eyes, and I don't agree with this statement. But after a while, I found the problem, in the process of filming, I found that the audience is absolutely mostly elderly friends, almost no young and middle-aged people, I remember watching the play when I was a child, it was every family of all ages and young people who went out of their nests, and now only the elderly watch the play, the situation seems to be more serious than some people say, and there is a tendency to be lost and lost.

The show was packed.

Traditional opera is known as the quintessence of the country, with a history of more than 1,500 years, and is a treasure of traditional Chinese culture. The unique charm and education methods of opera have affected many generations and many people, but with the development of the times and the rapid development of Internet technology, the situation came too suddenly, and more and more people are more willing to choose a fashionable, convenient and fast-paced lifestyle, which has invisibly caused a huge impact on the traditional opera culture.

The actor's moves are quite professional.

I believe that we have reached the boundary between inheritance and loss, and there is a long way to go if we want to inherit the ancient opera culture and continue to carry forward the quintessence of opera.
