The Northern Kunqu Opera Theater will soon debut its show adapted from Chinese tragedy The Orphan of Zhao. Chen Nan reports.
When Yang Fengyi took the post of director of the Northern Kunqu Opera Theater in 2009, she was anxious.
"I stood in a corner of the stage, looking at the audience. I was disappointed to see only about 20 people, all elderly, sitting in the theater," the 55-year-old recalls of a show.
