People's Daily Online, Beijing, June 12 (Reporter Yin Xingyun) During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, Beijing's first elaborately created large-scale sitcom with the theme of the Great Wall, Dream of the Great Wall, premiered in Beijing Shiyuan Park.

It is reported that "Dream China · Great Wall", with the theme of "Encounter with history, make a total of Chinese dragons", entered the official operation stage on June 9.

The play is the first large-scale live show in Yanqing, striving to create an original, branded and high-end cultural and tourism project, and thus promoting the deep integration and development of the two "golden cards" of Yanqing Great Wall and World Park, promoting the introduction of Badaling passenger flow into the hinterland of Yanqing, and striving to create a new cultural card of "Beijing for big plays, Yanqing for performing arts".

The performance of Dream Flower · The Great Wall is well conceived. It takes the culture of the Great Wall as the source of inspiration, takes the historical stories of the Great Wall over 2000 years as the main line, selects celebrities, works and stories related to the Great Wall that are highly recognizable, appealing, focused and have memory symbols, and integrates music, dance, acrobatics, poetry, folk customs and other artistic styles.
