In 1925,  Huang Zuolin went to Britain to study business where he was deeply  attracted by British drama and began to learn drama performing in his  spare time from Bernard Shaw. It was in 1935 that he, together with his  wife, once again traveled to Britain to study Shakespeare in Cambridge  University and drama directing in London Drama School.<\/p>\n<p>When the Anti-Japanese War broke out in 1937, Huang Zuolin went back  from Britain and took drama as his weapon to fight against the war. He  organized and directed a fair number of dramatic performances in  Chongqing and Shanghai. He set up Wenhua Movie Company in 1946.<\/p>\n<p>In 1950 Huang participated in establishing the Shanghai&#8217;s People&#8217;s  Art Theater and acted as the vice-president, president, and honorary  president in succession. Apart from teaching and directing, he spent a  lot of time summing up his own theory on drama.<\/p>\n<p>Huang Zuolin died on June 1st, 1994, at the age of 88. In his 66-year  art career, he turned out more than one hundred works of far-reaching  significance and cultivated many excellent actors and directors. His  theory of establishing Chinese modern, national and scientific dramatic  system is a great legacy in Chinese drama history.<\/p>\n<p>  <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"chine-tie-zi-nei-rong-zhi-hou\" id=\"chine-3681427815\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1889418300638825\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1889418300638825\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"7273022922\" \ndata-ad-layout-key=\"-gw-3+1f-3d+2z\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The late famous dramatic director Huang Zuolin \u9ec4\u4f50\u4e34 (1906-1994) was Bernard Shaw&#8217;s favorite Chinese student.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,2860],"tags":[126,45],"class_list":["post-14149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chinese-culture","category-chinese-opera","tag-chinese-opera","tag-teaching"],"views":291,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14149"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14149\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/my\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
