Shen Estate Teahouse Theater

The Shen Estate Teahouse Theater was more of a traditional Chinese estate than just a theater. It was said to be built by the descendants of Shen Yue, a prominent scholar and teacher of the Liang Dynasty's crown prince (502-587).

It has five houses and five courtyards, and after the transformation, was designed into an office of the Wuzhen Theater Festival and a stage mainly for traditional Chinese plays and operas. The stage was only part of the estate.
