The performance form of color opera is a comprehensive art that includes singing, reading, doing, and dancing. The hands, eyes, body, and footwork in the performance are basically intertwined with the color tone"Short step"、"Fan flowers"Among them, so to speak,"Short step fan"It is the most characteristic performing art of color tone.

The performance of color opera is a comprehensive art that includes singing, reading, doing, and dancing. One of the most prominent is the performance of doing and dancing. Because the color tune performance is based on the "three small plays" singing and dancing 36 out of the rivers and lakes, in the performance of the hands, eyes, body, footwork, basically run through the color tone of the "short step", "fan flower", so said, "short step fan flower" is the most characteristic of the color tune of the performing arts.

The toned short step fan has a different expression in each row.

Both singing and dancing, especially in the "Three Little Operas", are more prominent. **There are three types of singing cavities: cavities, plates, and tones. The same tune can be changed on the board and cavity according to the different lines and characters, and there is a saying that "the tune is shared more, and the plate cavity is subdivided", such as:

The cavity category is named according to the line, including the old Dan cavity, the shaking Dan cavity, the small sheng cavity, the Dan foot cavity, the ugly foot cavity, the old sheng cavity, and the baby cavity; According to the identity and occupation of the character, there are Xianggong cavity, Huazi cavity, matchmaker cavity, robber cavity, monk cavity, fairy cavity, etc.; According to labor and daily life, there are carrying cavities, rowing cavities, digging cavities, dressing cavities, drinking cavities, etc. There are complaint boards, crying boards, scolding boards, worrying boards, etc. The types of tunes include Bigu tune, walking horse tune, etc.

In addition, it also absorbs some tunes of folk rap, such as flower tunes, fishing drum tunes, scattered and so on. **The accompaniment is divided into left and right fields, and the left field is string orchestra, with the tune hu as the main instrument, as well as dulcimer, pipa, sanxian, suona, flute, etc.; The right field is a percussion instrument, with gongs, drums, cymbals, etc., and the gongs and drums are commonly used as "a dragon", "three nods", also called "long gong", "one cymbal", "three cymbals", "four cymbals" and so on.

Most of the basic characteristics of eyes, hands, body and footwork in the color performance are reflected in the two professions of Xiao Dan and clown (including Xiao Sheng), and the ugly Dan is second. The footwork, turning, appearance, fan flower, and hand flower of the harlequin and the danjiao are very rich in the characteristics of this play, and the footwork is the most prominent in the base. Harlequin footwork alone is divided into four categories: low pile, medium pile, high pile and high and low pile, such as "lame step", "twisted step", "kicking step", "tentative step", "horizontal step", "short step" and so on.

Danjiao's "heel step", "broken step", "cloud step" and so on. Fans, handkerchiefs, and streamers are the three treasures of the color performance. Among them, the fan is the most important one, and there are dozens of dancing styles of the fan flower, such as:

Three dozen and five movements, round ball fan, high and low fan, butterfly fan, fig fan, swing fan, swing fan, throwing fan, rolling fan, wave fan, combination fan, reverse fan, etc. During the performance, the fan can be used as a broom, umbrella, paddle, penny, knife and gun, which is really an all-purpose prop.

The appearance of various walks of life is also called "bright stage", and there are more than ten kinds of works. There are corner appearances, fan appearances, fan lift appearances, pressure fan appearances, side appearances, shame appearances, etc. The commonly used appearance actions of Xiaosheng and Danjiao include Golden Rooster Independence, Fuhu Wolong, Drunken Immortal Pillow, Looking Back at the Moon, Autumn Wave Review, etc.

The development of color tune is not only dependent on its own characteristics, but also has a very close relationship with brother dramas, Hunan Flower Drum Opera, Guangxi Gui Opera and Wenchang, which play a role in mutual influence and promotion of the development of color tune. For example, the [melon seed kernel], [flower tune wisdom is not this], [a piece of silk], [jade beauty], [jumping powder wall], [Hangzhou red], [falling off the bridge], [moon tune] and so on are very similar to the color tune of [small four scenes], [snowflakes floating], [a piece of silk], [jumping powder wall], [to spring], [red embroidered shoes], [moon tune slow Siping] is very similar. Another example is the [Liu Hai Dialect], [Yi Chi Lesson], and [Liang's Dialect] in the color tune singing cavity and the [Bigu Tune], Selling Groceries, and Sentimental Tone of Hunan Flower Drum Opera.

Liuzhou's Guiju ** has a great influence on the gong and drum music cards of the color tune, because the color tune did not have a court repertoire in the past, and the court dramas that were transplanted later were mostly Guiju transplantation, so they were transplanted from the Guiju opera music cards, such as [Liumao Ling], Feng into Songqian Xun], Urgent Three Guns], Xiao Bai Cha Nai Nian], Liutao Sha], Crying Huangtian], Guping], Bashan Tune], Jiejie Gao] and other Guiju opera music cards, in the performance of color tune operas, it has gradually evolved into the ** music cards of color tunes.
