Character evaluation
Yan minqiu plays the legendary life of princess, empress dowager, nun, mother and other characters in the play. Outside the play, she is a happy old lady who has nothing to do with others and enjoys herself. Her life has been devoted to stage performing arts. She has worked in Beijing People's Art Theatre for 45 years and created many excellent stage images. She never fight for the role, calmly waiting for each "predestined" role to appear.
