Introduction to the work
The craft of crosstalk started in the marketplace and flourished in teahouses and bookstores. It is a human fireworks hidden in jokes. It takes "speaking, learning, amusing and singing" as its core and "paving the ground firmly" as its pulse. It mixes the sorrows and joys of the world into wisecracks, and shakes the world's sophistication into a room full of glory. From the children's book next to the octagonal drum, to the floor-to-ceiling performance under the overpass, to today's stage and screen, it has gone through hundreds of years and has gone through many ups and downs in the tide of the times.
In this craft, there is the warmth of oral and heart-to-heart teaching between masters and apprentices, the sense of tacit cooperation between teasing and teasing, and the persistence of artists to stick to the original intention of "laughing" and find a balance between tradition and innovation. It is not only an art that makes people laugh, but also the Chinese people's philosophy of life hidden in humor, and a cultural imprint engraved in the fireworks of the market.
