On the Application of Regional Features in Contemporary Dance Drama

Abstract

Regional characteristics are widely used in Chinese contemporary dance dramas. Different regional cultures create different regional characteristics. Integrating regional characteristics into Chinese contemporary dance dramas can make Chinese regional characteristics shine. This article analyzes the regional characteristics of the dance drama "Shawan Past" and explores the spiritual connotations expressed by the application of regional characteristics in contemporary dance dramas. The dance drama "The Past of Shawan" is a rare masterpiece in contemporary dance drama creation. Through stories, characters, music and props full of regional characteristics, the drama deeply reflects the unremitting efforts of Guangdong musicians in inheriting and developing national music and the spirit of persistent pursuit, as well as the national spirit of the Chinese nation, which is fearless, indomitable, unswerving and self-improvement. At the same time, it vividly portrays the personality traits of Lingnan people, such as their unwillingness to succumb and yearning for freedom to drift with the tide, their brave, tenacious, united national spirit, and strong patriotism
