Operatic China Operatic China: Staging Chinese Identity Across the Pacific Staging Chinese Identity Across the Pacific

By Daphne P. Lei

In this study Lei focuses on the notion of 'performing Chinese' in traditional opera in the 'contact zones', where two or more cultures, ethnicities, and/or ideologies meet and clash. This work seeks to create discourse among theatre and performance studies, Asian and Asian American studies, and transnational and diasporic studies.
