Summary/Abstract: Chinese opera itself has a history of more than 100 years. Chinese and English academic works on the use and influence of Western operatic elements in Chinese opera in the 20th century are shallow, crude, or lack of systematics. In order to make up for this regret, this paper systematically combs the cultural background, historical background and representative works of the birth and development of Chinese opera on this theme, and uses the case method to analyze the application and influence of western opera elements in these representative works to outline the overall outline. It believes that Chinese opera has two wings: Western opera and excellent traditional Chinese cultural resources, has flown out of the line with Chinese characteristics, can feed the western opera of the artistic height.
