Yiyang Flower Drum Opera, commonly known as Yilu Flower Drum Opera, has a long history and great influence. The annual Flower Drum Opera Gala has become a business card to showcase Yiyang Flower Drum Culture. Today, when traditional culture is increasingly fading from people's sight, Yiyang Flower Drum Opera still has rich cultural connotations and great artistic charm. It is deeply welcomed by the people of the hometown with its strong local color and life atmosphere. Regardless of weddings or funerals, people like to invite troupes to perform. During the slack season of the New Year, the ancestral hall association, and the opening ceremony, several Flower Drum Operas must be invited. The bands for banquets and entertaining guests are also indispensable. Especially in recent years, during the Spring Festival, people are no longer satisfied with setting off firecrackers and playing cards. Some wealthy families invite Flower Drum Opera Troupes to sing in the town and village for two days. The elderly and children gather together to watch the show, which is both festive and civilized. The themes of Flower Drum Opera are mostly closely related to daily life. Generally, the plots are simple and very popular, and they are loved by the general public, especially farmers. The themes of Huagu Opera are generally positive. It not only sings the beautiful scenery and fine traditions of the hometown, but also promotes the mainstream socialist values, spreads social positive energy, and has good ideological and educational significance. In recent years, Yiyang Huagu Opera has made some bold innovations and explorations in performance forms, made some improvements in lyrics and composition, and launched modern Huagu Opera, Huagu Song and Dance, Huagu Sketches and other forms. In addition, with the improvement of stage scenery and the introduction of technical means such as sound, light and electricity, the ancient Huagu Opera is radiating youthful vitality. The stage will not collapse, and the fans will grow. The feelings and efforts of generations will surely make Yiyang Huagu Opera sing louder, brighter and farther. It is these innovations in the form and content of Huagu Opera that attract fans.
