Sheng Yuechun, Party secretary of Shaoxing, said the city will help build county- and city-level Yueju opera troupes by allocating 10 million yuan ($1.48 million) every year to the creation of new Yueju plays.

With the tagline "Yueju Opera Festival, People‘s Festival", the Fifth Chinese Yueju Opera Festival will run until Aug 20. During the festival, 45 plays, including 20 traditional ones and 15 new ones, will be performed to show the achievements and developments of Yueju Opera since 2018, when the last festival was held.

The Chinese Yueju Opera Festival is a national art festival held in Zhejiang every four years, started in 2006. It aims to preserve the culture of Yueju Opera and promote the development and prosperity of Yueju Opera.

Yueju Opera is not only a representative of Zhejiang opera, but is also one of the five major opera genres in China. It was included on the first national intangible cultural heritage list.
