Since June this year, Shaoxing Yue Opera Troupe has toured the whole country with representative works of Shaoxing Opera such as Meng Lijun and Liangzhu. "Welcome the Asian Games and enjoy Shaoxing Opera", the classic repertoire tour of Shao Opera spans 3 provinces and 6 places, and it is packed everywhere. In the same period, the 21st Grand Exhibition of Yue Opera started in Shaoxing in June and lasted until the opening of the Asian Games in Hangzhou in late September. More than 20 wonderful performances were presented successively, including well-known classic dramas and innovative plays newly created in recent years. With diverse themes, various schools and famous artists, it is a gluttonous feast of Yue Opera art. Moreover, at the opening ceremony of this year's Asian Games in Hangzhou, the warm-up program "Beautiful Ancient Yue", which represents Shaoxing, was very popular. The program combined Shao Opera "Golden Monkey Offering Blessing" and Yue Opera "Butterfly Lovers" with yellow wine elements, and the unique Shaoxing elements were presented to the audience.

Shaoxing, China, has always been a place of "drama", and the "old" drama is still young. With the project of "Beautifying Literature and Art", Shaoxing opera has entered the streets, and the special season of China's good voice, Yue opera, has been resounding through the cloud. Shaoxing opera has been combined with animation, and Shaoxing opera has been changing its form and integrating into daily life with the "popular trend".

Shaoxing's drama is the business card of local culture, and there are many kinds of operas that coexist. At present, there are five kinds of operas: Xinchang Tune Opera, Yue Opera, Shao Opera, Zhuji Xilu Random Play and Shaoxing Mulian Opera. Pinghu tune, Ci tune, Lotus Fall, Spreading Spring and Xuanjuan are all included in national intangible cultural heritage projects. Shaoxing is both a water town and a hometown of opera. It has also become a memory of many Shaoxing people to watch the social drama of Linhe on a wupeng boat.
