What you can expect

  • Step into the dazzling world of Peking Opera through an immersive backstage journey. This is not a passive watching experience but an interactive workshop where you become the star.

    Begin with a fun, multilingual introduction to the basics of Peking Opera—its four main role types (Dan, Sheng, Jing, Chou) and the hidden meanings behind each facial colour (e.g., red for loyalty, white for treachery).

    Choose a classic role like the Monkey King, Guan Yu, or a graceful princess. With the artist’s help, paint your own facial patterns and wear luxurious costumes layer by layer. Feel the weight of history and art in every detail.

    Learn iconic gestures and poses from a Peking Opera performer. Practice elegant sleeve movements, fierce weapon stances, and a powerful “dramatic freeze” to complete your character.

    Strike your best pose under professional lighting. Receive 3-5 retouched digital photos and a 15-second video—perfect for sharing and cherishing forever.
