Xian Dance Opera

This is a Dance Opera at Xian, in China, that many tourists go to. It is usually part of the tour. This Chinese Opera performance is very entertaining with superb dancers. It's a Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Show with a lot of dancing and singing in it. The sets are elaborate, colorful and exotic.

This first photograph is of a couple which introduces us to the show. All actors wear traditional Chinese clothes. Silken robes, ornaments and crowns.

The dancing white figures make a pretty picture and the audience is mesmerized. The stage is bathed in a white and blue light giving this effect.
