Chinese opera is<br />
characterised by its<br />
lavish costumes,<br />
the falsetto delivery<br />
of its actors and<br />
the highly stylised<br />
presentation of its<br />
set piece stories,<br />
which are drawn<br />
from Chinese<br />
folklore.<br />
The elaborate<br />
colours signify a<br />
character’s role,<br />
including their<br />
fate, together<br />
with illustrating<br />
the character’s<br />
emotional state.<br />
