Nanning Art Secondary School Let me tell you about the future: opera performance has a long history and rich heritage. In the process of its formation and development, it has maintained extensive contact with the people, thus reflecting the people's aesthetic requirements, being popular with the people, and forming a performance system with national characteristics. However, this legacy is not unlimited. For example, a large number of characters with immortal artistic value have been created on the stage of traditional opera, but there are not many artistic images of working people and ethnic minorities that have been created well; Guan Yuzhi has become a rare strong and powerful image on the stage of opera, which reflects the ancient people's admiration and praise for the legendary heroes, but also mixed with the color of mysticism. These limitations were caused by the erosion and influence of the ideology of the feudal ruling class. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the implementation of the policy of weeding out the old and bringing forth the new, these negative factors are constantly being corrected and reformed. A new topic for opera performance is to reflect the new life and create new characters. On the basis of mastering the rules of opera performance, it is necessary to create a performing art form that can not only carry forward the inherent characteristics of opera performance, but also reflect the new life and be full of the flavor of the new era. In addition, it is also an important task in the future to further systematically study the artistic rules of opera performance and establish a scientific theoretical system of performance with Chinese characteristics.
