Construction of a museum of Lu opera in China has started in its hometown of Guangrao County of Dongying City in the eastern province of Shandong. One of the eight major local operas in China, Lu Opera is characterized by melodious singing and stories reflecting family life and ethics. The play "Press for Marriage" was made into a film in 1979. The history of Lu opera is said to begin more than 100 years ago in Guangrao County, when many local farmers were forced to leave their homes to become beggars. While wandering, they would use simple musical instruments to tell stories they made up. The Shandong Lu Opera Museum will cover an area of 6,800 square meters and will have an exhibition hall, storage for cultural relics and a display hall of cultural relics. The exhibition hall will reproduce part of the Lu Opera stories and settings. Lu Opera is found mainly in Shandong province, northeast China's Liaoning province and Heilongjiang province, east China's Jiangsu province and northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. |
