At that time, there were local operas in Beijing, such as Shaanxi Opera and Peking Opera (which evolved from Yiyang Opera after entering Beijing), all of which had a certain audience. In order to compete with Kunqu Opera, Shaanxi Opera, Beijing Opera and other operas, and meet the needs of Beijing audiences, Huiban has undergone a series of artistic changes. On the basis of inheriting Huizhou and Diao Han, it has widely absorbed the advantages of other operas, especially some plays, tunes and performing arts of Kunqu Opera and Shaanxi Opera, and absorbed some folk tunes, and gradually formed a relatively complete artistic style and performance method.
1840 (twenty years after Daoguang), Peking Opera was formally formed. At this time, various turntables of Beijing opera have been initially possessed, the language characteristics of Beijing opera have been formed, the role industry has also undergone new changes, and a number of repertoires with Beijing opera characteristics have emerged.
/kloc-From the second half of the 9th century to the beginning of the 20th century (Tongzhi and Guangxu years in the Qing Dynasty), Peking Opera was often invited to perform in the palace, gradually replacing the dominant position of Kunqu Opera in the traditional Chinese opera stage for hundreds of years and becoming a major drama that swept the country.
Because Beijing was renamed Beiping, Peking Opera was once called "Pingju".
