Liyuan Theater, co-sponsored by Beijing Qianmen Jianguo Hotel and Beijing Opera Company, boasts the first artistic stage in Beijing. It is big enough for 1,000 people to enjoy the Chinese quintessence — Beijing Opera. When you sit at the old fashioned square table for eight people (Ba Xian Zhuo), appreciating the singing, reciting, dance acting, acrobatics, and martial arts of Beijing Opera, you will definitely feel intoxicated by its artistic beauty. You can also visit the make-up room to see the characters preparing for the performance, which might be an interesting tour. The Exhibition and Souvenir Hall is another attractive place, where you can have a clue of the history of Beijing Opera, browse the photos of famous artists, purchase opera costumes, facial makeup, instrument, calligraphy, paintings and videos, even pretend to be a protagonist by wearing the costume and facial makeup, and take a photo with the actors. Simultaneous interpretations in English, Japanese and French are provided.
Liyuan Theater is known for its brilliant Beijing Opera arts, desirable environment and excellent services. Welcome to Liyuan Theater.
