Imagine subway drivers, teachers, and construction workers stepping into the spotlight to celebrate one of China’s most iconic art forms . That’s exactly what happened in a recent talent showcase hosted by China Media Group, where over 1,000 Peking Opera lovers from across the Chinese mainland competed to revive classic roles.
The event, aired on November 15, brought together a vibrant mix of participants—students, professionals, and even a ’Peking Opera grandpa’ (as fans dubbed one retiree)—to perform legendary scenes like ‘Farewell My Concubine.’ After expert evaluations, 48 finalists teamed up with veteran artists to deliver jaw-dropping performances . The goal? To bridge generations and prove traditional culture can be as trendy as TikTok dances.
