Hukou Qingyang Opera (commonly known as Gaoqiang Opera) has been popular in Hukou, Duchang and Poyang areas from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to the Republic of China, and spread throughout the countryside. In the old days, the singing forms of Hukou Gaoqiang Opera were diverse, either performed on a high platform or sitting around drums, with actors singing and the crowd joining in, the tunes were high-pitched and melodious, gongs and drums helped, and there was no orchestra. Gaoqiang opera is generally taught by teachers and apprentices, and passed on orally. In the late Qing Dynasty, Gaoqiang opera troupes gradually formed. The more influential ones are: the "Xiu Lan Troupe" in the fourth year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty (1824), the "Old Xiu Lan Troupe" in the third year of Tongzhi (1864), the "Zhong Xiu Lan Troupe" and "Fu Xiu Lan Troupe" in the 30th year of Guangxu (1904), and the "Xin Xiu Lan Troupe" in the 33rd year of the Republic of China (1944). In the 1950s, as many old artists such as Wu Houde were transferred to the Provincial Classical Opera Experimental Troupe (Jiangxi Gan Opera Troupe), Hukou Gaoqiang troupes gradually dispersed, but amateur folk singing was sparse. During the "0" period, traditional Gaoqiang opera disappeared. In March and September 1983, Hukou County held two symposiums for old Qingyang Opera artists to discuss the origin, evolution, troupes, repertoires and music of Qingyang Opera, and recorded them. In April 1984, the county's Bureau of Culture and Education organized the "First Exhibition and Performance of Traditional Hukou Qingyang Opera Excerpts", which performed more than 10 plays, including "Hunting Letters", "Grinding Meeting", "Fu Rong's Debt Collection", "Three Battles with Lu Bu", "Drunken Concubine", and "Autumn River Farewell". In September of that year, the county party committee and the county government approved the establishment of the "Hukou County Drama Creation Research Office", and Liu Chunjiang presided over the special research work on Hukou Qingyang Opera art. In December 2004, the county's Bureau of Culture and Broadcasting, Jiujiang TV Station, and Jiangxi 701 TV Station jointly produced a special program on Hukou Qingyang Opera, "The Last Sound of Poyang Lake", which won the third prize of the second TV drama "Orchid Award" of the China Radio and Television Society. Jiujiang People's Radio Station recorded a special broadcast script "Qingyang Opera by Poyang Lake", and the International Channel of China National Radio introduced Qingyang Opera to the world. In September 2005, the modern Qingyang Opera repertoire "A Basket of Longevity Peaches" created by Hukou won six first prizes in creation, directing, performance, organization, best actor and best actress at the Jiujiang Golden Autumn Art Festival Short Drama Competition, and later won the first place in the provincial drama selection competition. After rescue excavation and sorting, a total of 96 Qingyang Opera handwritten repertoires (36 full-length plays and 60 short plays), 448 tunes, 40 singing tune scores, 110 hours (boxes) of singing tune recordings, 40 facial makeups, and more than 1,000 photos were collected. At the same time, relevant materials such as the origin, evolution, ancient score symbols, performing arts, religious rituals, class and society troupes, stage couplets, artist wall inscriptions, and ancient stages of Qingyang Opera were also recorded and sorted. The selfless contributions of veteran artists such as Pan Kangquan, Cao Meiqing, Cao Yaochun, Wu Jianglong, Wu Houde, Huang Yusheng, Wu Dunyou, Cui Longfa, Li Bingzhen, Qu Zhenshu, Shen Wendian, Cui Jintai, Yin Wuhuan, and Zou Xishou have promoted the discovery, protection, and inheritance of Hukou Qingyang Opera.

In June 2007, Jiujiang College selected Fulong Township, Hukou as a cooperation point to jointly build a "Qingyang Opera Teaching Practice Base" for the protection and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage.
