Stage flavor
Tomorrow is the year of the tiger Chinese New Year's Eve. Every new year, it always triggers a strong recollection of the past. When I was a child, I now have to go to the old street to find it; the delicacies on the tip of the tongue may only rely on the good craftsmanship of grandma and grandmother; seize the rare holiday to travel with the family and feel the liveliness of the Spring Festival in a different place...
However, the epidemic has once again stopped people from running around, and many people choose to celebrate the New Year in situ. However, the Spring Festival holiday, dressed up, with the whole family into the theater to see a performance, this ritualistic activity is becoming the New Year's flavor of many Shanghai families.

In order to enrich the holiday life of the citizens, Shanghai launched 72 sets of 456 performances in 7 days in the city's major theaters. The lively world of pink ink, the beautiful ballet dance, the beautiful symphonic opera, the hilarious comedy funny, the joyful fairy tale cartoon... There's always one for you. The data of 39% year-on-year growth is encouraging, behind which is the reunion dinner after a reunion meal sacrificed by literary and art workers. However, for the "workers" of Shanghai's theaters, the Spring Festival has always been spent at work every year, and it is almost the norm to stay in Shanghai to perform and celebrate the New Year in situ. Giving the audience a good show is also the best New Year's sign.
The stage is the taste of the year for them, and for the audience, it is even more the taste of the year. Seeing that shanghai recently announced that there were 38,366 commercial performances last year, which has been basically the same as in the whole year of 2019, we have reason to believe that the pre-epidemic living state is getting closer and closer, even if it is in place for the New Year, as long as you enter the theater, you will not be alone.
Bless each of us with such a taste of the Year in our hearts.
