From the press conference held this morning to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the famous Peking Opera master Wang Ping's performance, it was learned that two performances were arranged for this celebration, namely "Heroes of the Crowd, Borrowing the East Wind and Huarong Road" on October 1 and "Kangxi Emperor" on October 5.
The lineup of the drama "Group Borrowing Hua" can be described as a brilliant group of stars and eye-catching. Wang Ping will reunite with his old partners on Top of Yu Yu again, with deng Muwei (as Cao Cao), Li Li (as Zhou Yu), Kang Wansheng (as Huang Gai), Zhang Youlin (as Zhao Yun), and li fengge, Chen Xikai, and Tang Zhengang as the pianist. There are also Zhang Ke (as Zhuge Liang) and Shi Xiaoliang (as Jiang Gan) from the Tianjin Youth Peking Opera Troupe to join the performance and enrich the lineup. Wang Jiaqing and Jiao Pengfei, several outstanding young and middle-aged actors of tianjin Peking Opera House, will also show their skills in this repertoire. Wang Ping first played Lu Su in the play "one catch two" (this role was taught by the Tan family, Wang Ping's role is able to see Tan Fuying's shadow, you know this is true after you came to the theater to see it), and then played Guan Yu.
The drama "The Kangxi Emperor" was performed by the original team members Ma Wangping, Lü Yang, Wang Jiaqing, Yan Hongyu and so on, once again evoking the audience's memories of the past.
