Description
This bilingual website is a pilot of the Digital Library of Chinese Theatre that contains many performance episodes including foreign adaptations of Chinese plays, for example, by the Royal Shakespeare Company in the UK and Korean Michoo Theatre in Soul, and introductions to these performance episodes including the explanation of different theatrical genres. There are also two articles written by the Chinese theatre experts discussing both the traditional and modern theatres, and a bibliography of research on Chinese theatre carried out by Staging China international network members.
