Kūnqǔ, an extant form of Chinese opera originating from Jiangsu, is staged at this intimate theatre every Saturday evening at 7.15pm. The English subtitles retain the feeling and poetry of the original text, making the performances some of the most absorbing you'll find in China. Ticket prices vary by performance but generally cost from ¥50 up to ¥150.
