This theater demonstrates the "youthfulness" of Lingang and connects famous artists and troupes with "zero time difference"
"I am an 'old man' in the art world. I care about the growth of young people. It is my responsibility to popularize ballet and teach the audience a lesson in beauty." On September 18, Xin Lili, artistic director of the Shanghai Ballet, and the youngest generation of leading actors of "White-Haired Girl" appeared at the Lingang Performing Arts Center. Teachers and students of Shanghai Middle School East Campus and other audiences gathered together to share the red heritage on pointe.
Watching the lake, the sea, watching dramas, playing with ice and snow... Over the past five years, Lingang New Area has continuously enriched the options for "enjoying the new city", becoming a new entrance for Shanghai's urban cultural tourism traffic. Connecting the global stage and positioning itself as a "high-end performing arts and cultural landmark", the Lingang Performing Arts Center has provided young people who gather in the new city with a cultural paradise that is in tune with the trend through wonderful performances. On the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the establishment of the Lingang New Area, the Lingang Performing Arts Center carefully planned a series of theme activities to "celebrate" the new area.
In the upcoming 23rd China Shanghai International Arts Festival, Lingang Performing Arts Center has put forward a sincere program list. Sarah Zhang's violin solo concert and the Cuban National Ballet's ballet "Swan Lake" will be staged at Lingang Performing Arts Center.
It is worth mentioning that Sarah Zhang came to Lingang to hold a violin solo concert the next day after her performance at the Shanghai Grand Theater. The Cuban National Ballet will also rush to Dishui Lake as soon as possible after completing its performance in the city center. The seamless and smooth operation allows Lingang audiences to experience the world's classical art with "zero time difference". The "Art Sky" series of performances, a cultural benefit brand of the Art Festival, will bring many exquisite performances of domestic art troupes to Lingang, allowing residents to share the art feast at their doorstep.

In addition to stage performances, Lingang Performing Arts Center actively expands the radiation of high-quality performing arts resources and participates in "social aesthetic education" through the popularization of art. "White Haired Girl" not only came to Lingang for performance, but the Performing Arts Center also specially arranged a meeting with the crew; on October 17, the "social aesthetic education" educational brand "Listen to the Sea Art Class" will cooperate with Dr. Wang Music Studio to talk about violin and warm up for Sarah Zhang's violin solo concert.
In addition to the performances, the Lingang Performing Arts Center responded to the Lingang Micro-Tourism Plan and launched the theater open day event, which was linked with Duoyun Academy Dishui Lake Store, allowing audiences and tourists to experience the beauty and joy of new city life through literature and drama. As the first comprehensive theater with more than 800 seats in the Lingang New Area, the Lingang Performing Arts Center is an important supporting facility for the cultural development of the new area, carrying the important task of "planting cultural soil for the young city" in the new area. As of August this year, the Lingang Performing Arts Center has completed 84 performances and activities, attracting 26,636 audiences.
"For the Lingang Performing Arts Center, we must not only continue to introduce more high-quality performance projects that represent the public and mainstream aesthetics, but also present more masterpieces with a sense of the times and innovation to the Lingang audience. In the cultural field, we strive to make 'youth' synonymous with Lingang." said Shi Yuanyuan, general manager of the Lingang Performing Arts Center.
