historical origin
According to the Annals of Ninghai County written by Chongzhen of Ming Dynasty, "In the first month of acting, respecting ancestors and greeting gods. Twelve in the countryside and fourteen in the city until the eighteenth day." Experts have verified that during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1573-1619), Yuyao Opera, one of the four major tunes of the Ming Dynasty, flowed into Ninghai, and combined with local folk opera and singing troupes, forming a form of opera over time. The form of the opera is called "Ninghai Ping Dialect" because it is spoken and sung in Ninghai dialect, and its tune is gentler and euphemistic than that of Yuyao Dialect.
The history of Ninghai Pingdao Opera Troupe performances can be extended to the period from Qianlong to Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty. From Xianfeng to the Republic of China, the performance of Ninghai Ping Diao reached its peak. At that time, there were 11 peace-tune troupes in Ninghai County. The famous ones were Pan Ziyun and later Lao Juyuan, Xinxiangyuan and Tong Jufeng. These theatre troupes have traveled all over the prefectures of Eastern Zhejiang. Among them, "Pan Ziyun" class is the most famous and has persisted for more than 50 years. Because most of the performers in these theatres are native Ninghai people, they are also called "Ninghai Local Class".
Since the 1920s, Ninghai Level Tune has shown signs of decline.
Around 1949, it was almost dying.
In 1960, a local professional group was set up to actively rescue Ninghai Pingdao. Ninghai Pingdao has a new generation of self-cultivation, and the style of the past is re-developed. In the Cultural Revolution, Ninghai Pingdao was abolished.
After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, Ninghai Pingdao Professional Group resumed, but in the subsequent decline of opera art, it was once again cold.
In October 1961, it was renamed Ninghai Pingdao Opera Troupe, and organized efforts to rescue the traditional Pingdao Opera, sorting out 83 traditional plays. Under the dictation of the old artist, the flat tune singing was recorded.
Since the "Cultural Revolution" in 1966, a large number of playwrights, costumes and props were destroyed.
In April 1969, the county Pingdiao Opera Troupe and the Vietnamese Opera Troupe disbanded most of their personnel and arranged their work separately. Then, on the basis of the personnel left behind by the original troupe and absorbing some members of the society, a Mao Zedong Thought Literature and Art Propaganda Team (Wenxuan Team) of the County Reform Committee was set up to perform songs and dances.
In October 1978, Ninghai Ping Opera Troupe was rebuilt.
In 1983, the local government organized the "Ninghai Pingdao Rescue and Arrangement Group", which excavated and sorted out more than 70 traditional Ninghai Pingdao operas and hundreds of tunes, gongs and drums.
In 2005, Ninghai Pingdao was listed in the first batch of representative works of national intangible cultural heritage. With the attention of Ninghai county government and cultural authorities, a large amount of funds and manpower were invested again for rescue.
