"Wow! This stage is really big and beautiful! I'm really looking forward to the graduation performance tomorrow!" Unknowingly, the two-week Yangtze Evening News "Gusu Shuimo Diao" Children's Kunqu Opera 12-day basic training class is coming to an end. On the morning of July 19, the hall of Suzhou Kunqu Opera Theater in Jiangsu Province was filled with exclamations and admirations from "little Kun Opera fans". The children finally came to the coveted stage to make final rehearsals and preparations for the graduation performance the next day. .

Passing through the antique corridor, pushing open the grille door, an exquisite stage comes into view, where the "little Kun Opera fans" will display and report on their Kun Opera learning results tomorrow. "Let's go through the steps first, and we will officially go on stage tomorrow. Everyone must practice seriously!" Teacher Yang Han, a national third-level actor, intensively led the "Little Kun Fans" in the last rehearsal before the stage performance. "Xiao Kun fans" also attach great importance to this graduation performance and hope that they can give a perfect performance in the performance. As soon as Teacher Yang Han finished speaking, the "Xiao Kun fans" consciously put on colorful shoes and water sleeves, and lined up on both sides of the stage according to groups. There were even several "Xiao Kun fans" who couldn't wait to join their partners. Practiced the performance moves.

After several rounds of walking practice, the "Little Kun Fans" gradually adapted to the stage. I saw the "Little Kun Fans" moving slowly, walking in the circle from behind the curtain to the front of the stage, their faces half-covered with ball fans and their bodies light. Swinging, the spotlight shines on the "Xiao Kun Opera fans" from the roof, as if they show the standard appearance of Xiao Kun Opera actors. Then, Teacher Yang Han played the music, and the "Xiaokun fans" practiced more enthusiastically to the background music.

With lotus steps stepping lightly like a dragonfly touching water, and water sleeves dancing like willows in the breeze, "Little Kun fans" sang "The Peony Pavilion·Dream in the Garden" along with the music. The melodious Shuimo tune echoed in the hall, with an ancient charm. , penetrates the heart. When it comes to the two-person action part, the "Xiao Kun fans" are divided into two groups and wait on both sides of the stage. After many days of practice and cooperation, the "Xiao Kun fans" seem to be able to dance with their partners in perfect harmony. Along with the music, with just one look, they can understand and perform on stage together, sometimes in front of and behind, sometimes to the left and to the right, with well-proportioned movements and graceful postures.

"I have always been interested in Kun Opera, so I signed up to learn Kun Opera here. After two weeks of study, I like Kun Opera more and more, and I want to learn it again in the future. The graduation performance will be tomorrow, and I feel very excited and I'm happy and hope I can have a wonderful performance on stage." Hu Ge, from the first grade (13) class of Suzhou Industrial Park No. 2 Experimental Primary School, said firmly that after participating in the "Gusu Shui Mo Diao" Kunqu Opera basic training class. I am more passionate about Kun Opera and want to continue to learn and carry forward the traditional culture of Kun Opera in the future.
