Southern China's Fujian province today began its week-long culture show at the Baosteel Stage in Zone B of Expo's Pudong site by displaying its folk arts, including cart drum parade, puppet show, and Nanyin music, a traditional opera sung in the Minnan (south Fujian) dialect.
On the list are Putian cart drum parade, Fujian hotpot folk dance, Fuzhou Folk Dance with 12 brides, Fujian Minnan "chest batting dance," and a large-scale song and dance performance "Met at the Western Coast of the Taiwan Straits." There will also be a male and female vocal duet "Mountain and River Affection," a song from the Puxian Opera called "Spring Grass," Hakka folk songs, and acrobatics.
About 150 professional performers from the Fujian Provincial Song and Dance Theater, Fujian Province Acrobatic Troupe and others will take part.
The puppets include marionettes, palm puppets and writing puppets.
The pavilion had received more than 920,000 visitors by yesterday. Its theme is "Charming Fujian Province on the West Bank of the Strait."
