Liang Shuan
After the Opium War, Chinese society underwent rapid changes. Chinese literature entered a period of transition from classical to modern, and drama was no exception. After the long-closed borders of the Qing Dynasty were forcibly opened by foreign powers by force, exchanges between the East and the West became increasingly frequent. When "new voices from Europe and the West arrived from the Pacific," China's traditional drama stage inevitably received a strong impact. Since then, a new form of drama that can better express people's lives has appeared on the Chinese drama stage and has gradually become popular with the audience.
