The book is intended to become a useful reference for theatre people who need China knowledge. Its central questions are: how is traditional Chinese theatre (Chinese opera, i.e. xiqu) embedded in contemporary Chinese society? What identities are created through theatre? And, most importantly: how are these identities related to one another to form a complex economy of identities? An insight is offered into the traditional Chinese theatre system composed of over three hundred theatre types vying for recognition in a complex relational network. Understanding how this relationality works might also shed light on the functioning of other fields in the current socio-cultural complex of China.
