18.Beijing Opera is one of the most important opera styles in China.It is an art on the stage.It has about 200 years'history.It is not only a treasure of the Chinese nation but also a cultural symbol of China.Similar to the western operas,the Beijing Opera is a combination of singing,dancing,martial arts,music and literature,so it is also called the"Oriental(東方的) Opera"by western people. Beijing Opera uses special imagery in creating the characters.All roles are divided according to sex,personality,age,profession and social status.Hangdang is the general term for role types in Beijing Opera.There are four types of roles in Beijing Opera today.They are sheng,dan,jing and chou.The sheng is the male protagonist,the dan the female protagonist,the jing(painted face) a male supporting role with different characteristics,and chou(clown) a comic or negative figure.Each kind of role has their own face-painting and dressing to indicate their identities.
