About this activity
Your guide will pick you up from your Chengdu Hotel at 7:00 pm and take Taxi/Didi to the Sichuan opera theater. Firstly, go to get tickets in tickets center with guide's help. Then when you come into the theater, the staff will take you to your seat, and provide you one cup of free covered-bowl tea. The performance starts at 8.00 pm. You are able to admire the top three distinct featured performances: Changing Faces, Fire Spitting, and Rolling Light, and also enjoy other same famous and interesting show: Hand concept play accompanied by pleasant light music.

Changing Faces is an unique technique of Sichuan Opera, appearing almost like magic to enthrall audiences. During the performance, the performers switch masks as fast as lightning to portray different characteristics and personalities of the characters.

Fire Spitting is another distinctive show of Sichuan Opera. The skill is hard to master but when perfected, it is both entertaining and astonishing. Audiences will be amazed in front of the stage, particularly International audiences because nothing like this superb performance can be seen there.

Rolling Light, performed and accompanied by the original actors, provides a chance to Chinese opera lover to view and admire.

Hand concept play is an unique art form, performed by the change of the hand movements, forming a variety of different images without any other additional thing to modify it. They are mysterious and pure pictures. Just like you are enjoying a vivid movie.

Your guide will wait for you until you finished the watching. The performance ends at 9:30 pm and your guide will take Taxi/Didi to escort you back to your hotel and end this cultural appreciation tour satisfactorily and happily.

If you go to Chengdu, you have to see this, even if you don't understand a word of Chinese. The last part with the mask changing is very impressive. Our guide was very nice.
