Not long ago, the "Shaanxi Children's Opera Little Plum Blossom Gathering" activity came to an end in Xi'an, and a group of outstanding young players emerged from the activity, these young but full of vitality faces, showing rich stage experience, but also bringing the audience a sense of satisfaction that "there are successors to the opera industry".
In recent years, relying on the policy of governments at all levels to enter the campus, some opera troupes and professional actors have entered the campus, according to the understanding ability of students of different ages, or rooted in the school to carry out art interest education, or professional performances and lectures, constantly stimulating students' interest in traditional culture, attracting many children and teenagers.

Some parents who are very interested in opera themselves have also enrolled their children in opera special classes, or sent their children to the homes of professional actors to carry out systematic learning. Especially in the context of "double subtraction", children have less homework burden and more time to develop artistic hobbies and cultivate opera specialties.
This kind of two-way construction of opera education can cultivate a large number of opera lovers among young people, so that they can learn about opera from an early age. Opera is the master of traditional culture, in which you can find elements such as music, literature, art and sports, and it is an excellent teaching material for children.

As an important part of traditional culture, opera can also bring children traditional cultural enlightenment. How many stories of loyalty and filial piety are spread through opera, and children are imperceptibly affected in the process of learning, so they naturally integrate ideological and moral education into it and understand the development of Chinese culture for thousands of years.
Some particularly gifted teenagers, in the process of learning to feel the beauty of opera, may have the will to practice. Many children who have participated in the Little Plum Blossom Contest or the TV Contest have grown up to enter art schools, began formal opera studies, and eventually became shining stars on the stage.
If you don't plan to let your child engage in the opera industry, you can actually let your child take opera as an interest. People's life can not be smooth, the growth process is inevitable to encounter a variety of ups and downs, then you may wish to go to see the play, "think of the year", from the wisdom of the ancients to find experience, let yourself live more thoroughly.

Primary and secondary school opera performances have become an annual highlight event
In the adolescent stage, planting the seeds of opera in children's hearts is not only to give children the enjoyment of beauty, the improvement of morality, and the influence of culture, but also to let opera have a greater living space and farther development prospects in the future.
As I have said many times, opera cannot be artificially mythologized, and art cannot be infinitely elevated, that is, the cultural relics in the museum, and posterity can only exclaim the greatness of the ancestors when they observe it. If we want opera to survive and develop, we must be able to feel it, everyone can touch it, everyone can understand it, and even become a "necessity" around us.

In 2020, the Cavity Society was established and professional opera teachers were invited to teach
Regular weekly opera activities are carried out, and more than 50 times are carried out in total
Those teenagers who plant the seeds of opera in their hearts will grow up to become the backbone of society, become talents from all walks of life, and become the pillars of the country. As they grow, opera will continue to grow in their hearts, adding cultural self-confidence to them.
Popularizing opera and passing on art among young people is, in fact, prolonging the life of opera.
