The innovative production caters to younger audiences by creating ethereal visuals with ink-wash painting-inspired lighting and color palettes and using holographic projections that trace the protagonist's dramatic life journey.

　　“Our primary responsibility is producing excellent works that keep pace with the times. A theater company's true cohesion comes from three pillars — quality plays, skilled performers, and a robust repertoire,“ Zhou says.

　　Additionally, they are planning to open an experience center that will feature a 200-square-meter performance space for regular Peking Opera highlights with an exhibition area displaying the distinctive costumes and makeup styles of different roles, according to Zhou.

　　“Visitors then can drop by anytime to explore and interact with the performers, experiencing the beauty of Peking Opera firsthand,“ she says.
