Hainan Zhai Opera

Time: 2019-05-02 14:01:46 Author: ChinaWiki.net

Hainan Zhai Opera

Hainan Zhai Opera is a traditional sacrificial ritual drama in Hainan Province. It is similar to the Nuo Opera in northern China. It is known as "Nuo Opera in the north and Zhai Opera in the south". It originates from the folk sacrificial ceremony. Early sacrificial ceremonies were simple dances and chanting incantations, which were called "making a fast" in Hainan folk. With the introduction of foreign operas, sacrificial rituals absorbed the nutrition of the opera "singing and dancing stories" and developed into Zhai opera. Zhai Opera is the primary form of Hainan Opera. Qiongju Opera, the largest local opera in Hainan, was born out of Zhai Opera. Zhai Opera was produced in Ming Dynasty at the latest and has a history of more than 400 years.
