Opera teaches culture for student from Cameroon

To learn the opera, Liu sought out well-known Yuju artist Li Shujian to be his master.

"To learn the opera, one must learn Chinese well," Liu said. So he also participated in a Chinese language class.

After a year of learning and practice, Liu got an opportunity to play on TV on a locally famous Yuju program and obtained some recognition for himself.

"I will show the opera to people in my country when I go back and let more people have the opportunity to enjoy the play and Chinese culture," he said.
