This year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala dance poetry drama "Only This Green" made a stunning appearance and successfully conquered a large number of fan audiences! "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" incarnates the dance poetry drama "Only This Green", recreates the aesthetics of the Great Song Dynasty with the stage, connects the thousand years of stillness and movement, and opens an immersive "painting appreciation" experience for the audience! The reporter learned from dongguan yulan grand theater that the dance poetry drama "Only This Green" will be performed three times in Dongguan from March 11 to 12.
According to reports, in 2019, China Oriental Performing Arts Group intends to create a work that shows the charm of traditional Chinese culture. The creative team considered "Qingming On the River Map" and "Han Xizai's Night Feast Map", but finally chose "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". Because the vast rivers and rivers and the rolling mountains in the painting are full of rhythm and have something in common with dance. The birth of "Only This Green" was not easy, it took more than a year to create, and it took 5 and a half months of rehearsal before it was finally put on the stage.
Why should the green in this painting be taken out separately and adapted into a dance? Wang Zhongxu, a research librarian in the Calligraphy and Painting Department of the Palace Museum who served as a consultant for the cultural museum "Only This Green", once shared the past of taking photos of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", when the light gradually dimmed, the turquoise color on the painting would emit a jewel-like light. Therefore, the creators agreed that the green may be the key to opening the painter's spiritual world.
In October 2021, the excerpt "Into the Painting" from the dance poetry drama "Only This Green" debuted on the screen and appeared on CCTV-3's "National Treasures and Performance Season". Related Weibo topics were read by 30.21 million and discussed by 12,000, and many netizens lamented "beauty to suffocation, beauty to tears"; this year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala, "Only This Green" excerpt made a stunning appearance, and successfully conquered a large number of fan audiences! The reporter just learned from dongguan yulan grand theater that from March 11 to 12, the dance poetry drama "Only This Green" will be performed three times in Dongguan.
