In this study Lei focuses on the notion of 'performing Chinese' in traditional opera in the 'contact zones', where two or more cultures, ethnicities, and/or ideologies meet and clash. This work seeks to create discourse among theatre and performance studies, Asian and Asian American studies, and transnational and diasporic studies.

A provocative analysis of Chinese opera as experienced and practiced across multiple stages. Unlike traditional scholarship on Chinese opera, Operatic China examines theatrical and paratheatrical performance, theatre critique, ethnographic writings, local histories, and theories of performance, interculturalism, and transnationalism
