Inheritance and Protection of Gannan Tea Picking Opera

Gannan Tea Picking Opera is an important part of China’s intangible cultural heritage protection and a non-renewable artistic and cultural resource. With the rapid development of today’s society, Gannan Tea Picking Opera once fell into a depressed inheritance state. There were serious problems about it such as the lack of successors, the cultural level of performers to be improved, the serious loss of audience, the weakness of follow-up strength, the fixed and single inheritance mode and the narrow performance market. So it is urgent to inherit and protect Gannan Tea Picking Opera from three aspects: cultivating successors, broadening the inheritance mode and expanding the inheritance scope.
