Kindergarten Beijing Opera Workshop- The Monkey King Visits WAB : January 16, 2007

Kindergarten students enjoyed a Beijing Opera demonstration from a troupe of local performers as part of their "Movement and Music" Unit of Inquiry. Students applauded the acrobatics and vocal techniques of the performers, who demonstrated various traditional techniques of this celebrated Chinese art form. Students asked questions such as "Where do you buy your makeup?" and "Are your swords real?" They were amazed to learn that many opera performers begin training at the age of eight, a fact that many picked up on before the information was translated!
