CHINA FOCUS Brings Top Chinese Theatre Productions Back to Edinburgh Festivals

Sam AllcockBy Sam Allcock19/08/20242 Mins Read

Organised by the China Shanghai International Arts Festival and co-organised by Branding Shanghai, the fourth edition of CHINA FOCUS 2024 has officially launched at the Edinburgh Festivals, presenting an impressive selection of eight exceptional Chinese theatre productions. This programme offers a sensory feast, merging both traditional and contemporary Chinese culture.

This year’s lineup includes an exciting range of performances, such as Wu Man at the Edinburgh International Festival, Riding Alone, Look at Them!, Forging the Swords, Hi, Sid!, Hu Opera Love Bridge, Ancient Ship, and Beautiful Earth The Blue Bird at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. These productions draw inspiration from classic myths and literary masterpieces of Chinese heritage, showcasing the rich diversity and vibrant spirit of China while offering a unique blend of Chinese and Western cultures to a global audience.

Launched in 2017, CHINA FOCUS aims to promote Chinese heritage and cultural products in international markets. This celebration of excellence in Chinese theatre presents high-quality performances in Edinburgh, each reflecting a contemporary interpretation that fuses traditional elements with modern creativity.

The official reception for CHINA FOCUS on 16 August welcomed distinguished guests, including representatives from the UK Department for Business and Trade, the British Council, the Scottish Government, Scottish Development International, Festivals Edinburgh, as well as the Chinese Consulate General in Edinburgh, The Centre for China Shanghai International Arts Festival, and the Shanghai Huangpu District Government. Guests were also treated to a performance of Ancient Ship by the CSIAF Youth Art Troupe following the reception.

CHINA FOCUS acts as a strategic and dynamic platform for fostering innovation within the Sino-UK creative industries. By presenting an exquisite selection of theatrical productions, this annual programme is set to become a cornerstone of the Edinburgh Festivals’ celebration of Chinese culture, strengthening existing relationships and forging new connections between individuals and organisations within the creative sectors.

Founded in Shanghai, the China Shanghai International Arts Festival is a premier national arts festival that serves as a gateway for international cultural exchange. It focuses on showcasing and promoting outstanding Chinese works on the global art stage, collaborating with festivals and arts organisations worldwide. Through its efforts, the festival tells the story of China while interpreting the vibrant culture of Shanghai.
