　　Song Yan, from Beijing, is the head of Beijing Fenglei Peking Opera Troupe. He has been performing Peking Opera for 44 years. During the Spring Festival, he and the troupe actively rehearse new plays while preparing for the improved version of Peking Opera for the Spring Festival. He believes that watching Peking Opera has always been a popular Spring Festival activity for Beijing residents. As a traditional art, Peking Opera embodies rich elements of Chinese culture. Although Song Yan and his troupe have to cancel large-scale performances due to COVID-19 pandemic, he said: "After the pandemic, we will perform the classic plays to the audience!"
