On the outdoor stage of the Labor Practice Base of Happiness Manor in Tianxin District, Changsha, jubilant dragon dance performances, moving opera singing, and beautiful folk dances were staged one after another. The Happy Manor Community Cultural Festival aims to create a festive atmosphere that advocates labor and neighborhood harmony, and allows community residents to enjoy high-quality and down-to-earth cultural services during this May Day holiday. In recent years, relying on its own brand characteristics, the Happy Manor project has become an important platform to enhance neighborhood exchanges and promote community harmony through cultural gatherings by continuously holding community culture-related activities.

Ms. Wang, a resident of the community, said, "I heard that there are activities in the past two days, so I brought my children to come and see, I didn't expect it to be so lively, there are not only children's play projects, but also street food, and you can also watch the cultural performances brought by professional actors for free, our community culture is really powerful, and it is really happy to live in Happy Manor." ”
This event is really suitable for all ages, with both research and practice projects suitable for children to play and experience, as well as traditional opera and flower drum performances that the elderly love to enjoy. According to reports, the Hunan Provincial Labor Education Practice Base Happy Manor Camp has formed a unique brand feature in Hunan with community research, and the corporate culture is committed to becoming the happiest community research camp in China with the slogan of "education changes life, labor creates happiness". This related cultural theme activity integrates many community research projects, such as navigation model experience, traditional archery experience, intangible cultural heritage opera performance, live water bomb shooting, etc., so that community research can play an important role in community cultural activities. The characteristics of research rely on community culture, and research culture feeds back community activities.
"The biggest feeling I have about this May Day event is that the community residents have an obvious thirst for community culture, and everyone is highly motivated to participate in community cultural activities. The community cultural festival is not only a literary feast and a happy meeting, but also a beneficial practice for our company to explore cultural services and promote social governance. Ni Fulin, chairman of Shenzhen Fuzhongfu Group, said that in the future, Happy Manor will carry out more such cultural activities to contribute to the construction of community culture.
The theatrical performance is the most anticipated part of the community, and before the start of each performance, everyone will come to the scene early, sit on the bench and wait for the performance to begin. The Nancheng Flower Drum Theater Troupe brought the opening dance "Dragon Prosperity" and "Towards Revival" with a strong festive atmosphere, which brought the atmosphere to a climax. The residents of the community were busy taking pictures and applauding, and the children were equally excited. Zeng Zhihui, a national first-class actor of Hunan Flower Drum Theater, Chen Hualin, an outstanding young actor of Changsha Flower Drum Opera Protection and Inheritance Center, and Zhang Ziwei, an outstanding young actor of Hunan Flower Drum Theater, jointly brought classic repertoire to everyone, and the joyful atmosphere immersed everyone on the scene.

The popular classic opera evoked the memories of the audience, and everyone hummed along with the actors, with some warmth in the joyful atmosphere. Mr. Liu, 69, said: "My wife and I were at home during the festival this year, but I didn't expect to hear such a classic opera, which we loved to listen to when we were young, thank you." ”

In recent years, as Happy Manor attaches more and more importance to community culture, every holiday to hold community culture-related activities, residents of the surrounding communities will become loyal "fans" to check in, and a tacit understanding between each other has formed an agreement.
The highlight of this event is the opening of the large-scale red flower drum opera "Grandma Itakura" at 7:30 p.m. on May 1, allowing the community to experience the stage charm of Hunan traditional flower drum opera up close. At the performance site, the actors were full of energy, mellow singing, vivid appearance, and vivid performances, vividly showing the classic red story to the audience. The red repertoire "Grandma Itakura" takes Yang Kaihui's mother Xiang Zhenxi as the protagonist, with the theme of great love for the family and the country, focusing on the story of Mrs. Xiang Zhenxi and Mr. Yang Changji, who paid attention to family style education and cultivated the stories of Yang Kaihui, Mao Anying, and Yang Zhan. The play shows a series of red inheritances of sacrificing one's family for the country and sacrificing one's life for the sake of the country, "the Yang family's misfortune and the country's luck" by capturing several cross-sections of her grandmother's life. The plot is ups and downs, tear-jerking, and enlightening.
