Chinese Opera opens in the make-up room of the People's Theatre in Canton, where the cost is preparing for a 300-year-old Cantonese opera called Niu Yi Chuan Su, a romance, and then moves on to an acrobatic training school for future opera stars. The video concludes with a performance by the Northern Opera Group in Beijing. The viewer is given an in-depth, first-hand experience of this fascinating ancient art form.
