China's first immersive opera performance
A night to see Suzhou's double heritage
20 18 Tanabata, the garden version of Kunqu Opera Six Chapters of a Floating Life premiered in Canglang Pavilion. The performance perfectly combines Kunqu Opera, a world intangible cultural heritage, and Canglang Pavilion garden landscape, and condenses a simple picture of Suzhou city life woven by poems, paintings, streets, flowing water, lotus roots and stone bridges, and tells the story of Shen Fuyun's mother and her husband's humanistic love, like-minded and congenial feelings.
Six Chapters of a Floating Life is a beautiful love letter written by Shen Chao to his wife Yunniang. They have been friends for 23 years. I spent my whole life with my mother in Gusu City in the south of the Yangtze River. The fireworks life of rice, oil and salt also has the poetic romance of spring flowers and snowy moons. Gu Yue is still like today's people, but few couples are so loving. There is always joy in the world, except for three meals for two people in one room, and the four seasons are simple and pure. The husband and wife love each other day and night, which makes the world envy them.
As the sun set, the crowd dispersed. Every Saturday night, the piano is melodious next to Canglang Pavilion, vendors are selling one after another, and palace lanterns are dotted with green hills near the water. The most primitive state of Gusu City gradually emerged. More than 200 years ago, Shen Fu and Yunniang lived next to Canglang Pavilion in Qi Mei. Two hundred years later, Kunqu Opera was used to interpret the true and touching love story in Canglang Pavilion in an immersive way.
Shen Fu is graceful with sleeves, and the girl is graceful with water. Looking back and smiling, it is fascinating in an instant. Every inch of masonry that the audience walked through left the footprints of Shen Fu and Mother Sheep, which made people feel that time had gone back. It is a rare blessing to watch Shen Fuyun's Mother in the exhibition hall and experience the "double heritage" of culture.

Secular concerns and man-made obstacles have disappeared without a trace. You have to rest for half a day, come to Canglang Pavilion to punch in and spend the most beautiful night in Suzhou ~
