Why is the white-haired girl classic?

White-haired Girl is the cornerstone of China's new national opera. Its most prominent artistic feature is its strong national color. With the theme of China Revolution, it shows the complicated struggle life in rural areas of China, and reflects the national customs, habits, personality, moral character, psychology and spiritual outlook. At the same time, it inherited the tradition of folk songs and dances, borrowed from China's classical operas and western operas, and created a new national form on the basis of Yangko Opera, which opened up a dynamic road for the construction of new national operas.

"White-haired Girl" draws lessons from the tradition of organic combination of singing, reading and Taoism in classical Chinese opera, expressing the characters' personality and inner activities and promoting the development of the plot.

From the linguistic point of view, the dialogue in White-haired Girl is refined and popular, natural and simple, and folk proverbs, sayings or two-part allegorical sayings are often used.

Contrast is an important feature of white-haired girls. The Yang family is poor and miserable, and the Huang family celebrates New Year's Eve. The contrast of the atmosphere at the scene reflects the serious class opposition. After the Empress Huang, he gambled, had fun, begged the court for rent and debts, and forced to sell women. The contrast between the internal and external scenes reveals the evil nature of the landlord class building its own paradise with the bones of the poor. Especially in the characterization, the characters in the play have different personalities. The ferocity and simplicity and faithfulness of Huang's slaves have sharp dramatic conflicts and prominent themes. When portraying villains, exaggerated language is often used to highlight their essential characteristics.
