[더그 웨스트, 안칭(安慶)사범대학 미국인 교사] “Hello, I am Doug West, a teacher at Anqing Normal University in Anhui Province. In the city where I live, there is a Huangmei Theater, one of the traditional Chinese plays. I finally got the opportunity to experience it today. Alright, let’s go learn the famous Huang Mei play in China now!”

[더그 웨스트, 안칭사범대학 미국인 교사] “Oh, no, I can’t. I see. Hang on.”

[더그 웨스트, 안칭사범대학 미국인 교사] “The teacher here said that Huang Mei Geuk is one of China’s intangible cultural heritages. It is also one of the five major Changgeuk plays in China that originated from rural folk songs and dances. Huang Mei Geuk is present today thanks to its elegant sound and gestures, as well as beautiful costumes and stages. It is well received not only in China but also abroad.

Huang Mei-geuk’s music features elegant and sweet folk songs. Passion, simplicity, and innocence make Huang Mei’s a timeless play recognized by all.”

[안칭사범대학 학생] “It means ‘5’.”

[더그 웨스트, 안칭사범대학 미국인 교사] “Okay, let’s high-five!”

[더그 웨스트, 안칭사범대학 미국인 교사] “Now the teachers here help me with my makeup. Today I will play an old official in Huang Mei’s play.”

[더그 웨스트, 안칭사범대학 미국인 교사] “Now that the costumes and makeup are done, I will go up to the stage and speak.”
