The Broken Bridge (断橋)

Today I wathced watched an oppera named called "The Broken Bridge" in Shanghai Culture Square. The Broken Bridge is a famous historical site bridge in Hangzhou City.  The most famous folklore story associated with it is "Madame White Snake" (白蛇傳)There also a famous folklore about the Broken Bridge, which tells a love story of a snake elf and a young man. But However this the oppera didn't recite did not tell of this the ancient famous story and innovated to be a mordern but based on a modern love story about  telling about how two young lovers of their separations and reunions through a seventy year period.  n loved being are separated and reunioned and seperated again in the past 70 years. It is moved. A very moving story indeed.  The music, the songs and the dances are all originally produced. I like the oppera performance and the opera very much.
