It is a relatively recent style in traditional Chinese thatre. It has been popular in the country generally, and especially among urban youth. The story, characters, costumes, music and stage presentation have a distinctly Chinese flavour. The events take place at un unspecified time in a remote border region of ancient China where Han people live with minority races.
