Shanghai Culture Square: A Celebration of Theatre and Urban Life

Immersive Theatre Experience

Shanghai Culture Square is celebrating its 12th anniversary with the theme “No Bounds in Theatre”, presenting the audience with a rich blend of stage art and urban life. The celebrations are marked with diverse activities ranging from theatre tours, art events, a marketplace, a photography exhibition, and performances. The core intention is to showcase the unique styles of various countries and demonstrate how they can be harmoniously integrated into urban life.

September Anniversary Performances

In the anniversary month of September, Shanghai Culture Square is hosting a range of musical performances. The line-up includes the music concert “End of the World”, featuring a compilation of French musical stars, and a Chinese rendition of the musical “Count of Monte Cristo”. Other highlights include Zhang Weiwei’s new album “Shamu Li” concert and the German musical star Maya Hakford concert. These performances vary in style, connecting the audience’s desire for drama with the exotic.

Commemorative Necklace: A Fusion of Music and Elegance

As part of the 12th-anniversary celebrations, Shanghai Culture Square has launched a special derivative product: a lyric-engraved pearl necklace. The pearls align with the theme of the year’s performance season, “Everything is new light”. The lyrics engraved on the necklace pendant are from two musicals that hold special significance to the theatre and the audience: the Chinese version of the musical “My Bucket List” and the original French version of the musical “Notre Dame de Paris”. This necklace serves not only as a piece of elegant jewelry but also as a memento of the anniversary celebrations and the musical journey the audience has embarked on.

Conclusion

Shanghai Culture Square’s 12th-anniversary celebration is a testament to the fusion of stage art and urban life. The various activities and performances lined up for the event, coupled with the launch of the lyric-engraved pearl necklace, create a unique and immersive theatre experience for the audience. By embracing different cultures and integrating them into urban life, Shanghai Culture Square continues to push the boundaries of theatre.
