The Current Development and Prospects of Musical Theatre in China

Min Li

Abstract


Musical theatre is a comprehensive stage performance art form derived from the integration of drama, music and
dance. Musical theatre originated in England in the 19th century, and its prototype can be traced back to the operetta, comic opera,
black opera, etc. The main performance venues are on Broadway in the United States, and it is here that musical theatre has been
rapidly developed and innovated, and has gradually come to the world stage. When musical theatre was developed in China, it
also began to innovate in form, gradually localized, combined with the Chinese market demand, and more inclined to meet the
Chinese art appreciation habits. The innovation in the local development of musical theatre in China will surely usher in a broader
development prospect.
