The new cultural scheme aims to launch a global festival themed "Rediscovery of Kunqu" by 2024. We will have more offline events held in the future in Edinburgh, and there will be interactions between Chinese and European artists concerning this Asian art," Chris Wang, the Edinburgh Kunqu Opera marketing representative, told the Global Times on Monday. "The online show this year is just a beginning. The China-UK cooperation marks Kunqu Opera's first long-term participation in the annual European art festival that attracts more than 250,000 visitors every year. Kunqu Opera, China's 600-year-old intangible cultural heritage, is set to appear at one of the world's most celebrated art festivals - the Fringe - in Edinburgh, the UK, following the signing of a China-UK strategic cultural promotion agreement between the Asian Art Fund of Scotland and the Northern Kunqu Opera Theatre based in Beijing on Monday.ĭuring the 2022 Fringe, Kunqu Opera culture will be presented in online performances showcased at the Edinburgh venue.
