Good show, funny even if you don't understand chinese, but I do recommend having someone who at least can explain a little what's going on with more detail. A few performers interact with the public, which improves the experience. I'd like the show to be longer, but still it's good and I recommend it.

I had a great time at the face-changing performance! It’s super interesting and entertaining. The best part is how easy it was to find the venue—it’s in a great location. Highly recommend checking it out!

it was a very interesting experience to see the Peking Opera it is not opera in usually way you would expect.

I was absolutely mesmerized by the face-changing act! Definitely a highlight of my trip!

the show was really great! you will definitely enjoy with/ without knowledge of chinese
