The singing of Chen Qiaoru, a famous Sichuan Opera actress dressed like Yang Yuhuan - a drunken imperial concubine of the Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) - in the Jinjiang Theater in Chengdu, Sichuan province, impressed the audience so much that they kept applauding. The performance of the classic play Drunken Beauty was one of a series of recent events held in Chengdu to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Yang Youhe (1913-84), a master of Sichuan Opera. The events included classic performances by Yang's students who are elite Sichuan Opera performers, some of whom are in their 70s, and an exhibition of more than 300 photos featuring Yang's life and artistic achievements.
