The old world charm of this beautiful theatre. Lots to look at. We saw the musical Frozen and we had amazing box seats. You can really lose yourself here. A step back in time.

What should have been a night of marvelling at Chinese history and dance culture turned into a religious/political propaganda show with mediocre cultural content as framework. Very disappointing …

Essentially the same dance in different costumes (sleeves of varying lengths) again and again with anti-intellectual, anti-science, anti-athiest, anti-Communist themes throughout that are about as subtle as a brick to the face.
