This year's National Day Golden Week saw a surge of "Chinese fever" in Paris, France, where local media and audiences were buzzing about a dance drama from Shenzhen, China-the original Shenzhen dance drama "Wing Chun". In recent years, in addition to "Wing Chun", Guangzhou's acrobatic show "Swan", and Puning's Fumei Youth Yingge Team have also stepped onto the international stage, Creating a wave of "Lingnan style" abroad.

From September 20th to 21st, "Swan" kicked off its Russian tour with a performance at Moscow's Live Arena. Then, From September 26th to 28th, "Swan" made a grand appearance at the renowned Mariinsky Theatre, performing four sold-out shows and receiving what the audience called "the most enthusiastic applause in the history of the Mariinsky Theatre."

Local time from October 4th to 6th, "Wing Chun" captivated French audiences with four consecutive performances at the Palais des Congrès de Paris. Following a 12-show run over nine days at London's Sadler's Wells Theatre from August 30th to September 7th, "Wing Chun" has now toured 208 shows across 41 cities worldwide, achieving both critical acclaim and box office success.

The success of "Wing Chun" reflects the ongoing global reach of Lingnan culture. From the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to China, and from China to the world stage, Lingnan culture shines brightly due to its diverse charm. It is reported that "Wing Chun" performed 16 shows in London and Paris, with tickets for the evening shows almost sold out, setting a record for the longest commercial performance time, the most shows, and the best box office for a Chinese dance drama in Europe, successfully establishing a cultural brand in Europe.

The harvest of reputation and box office is attributed to the excellent quality of "Wing Chun" and its innovative overseas commercial performance model. "Wing Chun" has changed the previous government-funded model for cultural export projects and adopted a market-oriented commercial performance model to perform in London's West End and the Paris Conference Palace, two of the world's top art hubs. This large-scale, multi-show commercial run is unprecedented for Chinese dance dramas on the global stage.

As Guangdong's art and literature continue to reach international audiences, the world will undoubtedly discover more of the charm of Lingnan's excellent culture.

文化出海，粤产文艺在海外刮起“岭南风”

今年国庆黄金周，法国巴黎掀起了一波“中国热”，当地媒体和观众都在热议一场从中国深圳来的舞剧——深圳原创舞剧《咏春》。近年来，除了舞剧《咏春》，还有广州的杂技剧《天鹅》、普宁的富美青年英歌队等走出国门，在海外刮起阵阵“岭南风”。

9月20-21日，《天鹅》在莫斯科Live Arena的演出为俄罗斯之行正式拉开帷幕。9月26日-28日，《天鹅》空降有着“俄罗斯艺术航母”之称的马林斯基剧院，连演四场座无虚席，现场更是响起被观众称为“马林斯基剧院有史以来最热烈的掌声”。

当地时间10月4日-6日，《咏春》在巴黎会议宫连续上演的4场演出惊艳了法国。加之8月30日至9月7日，在英国伦敦沙德勒之井剧院连续9天的12场演出，《咏春》已在全球41座城市巡演了208场，实现了口碑票房双丰收。

《咏春》的火爆是近年来岭南文化持续“出圈”“出海”的缩影。从粤港澳大湾区到全国，从中国到世界，岭南文化因多样魅力而熠熠生辉。据介绍，《咏春》在伦敦和巴黎的演出共16场，晚上场次的票几乎售罄，创下中国舞剧在欧洲商演时间最长、场次最多、票房最好的纪录，在欧洲成功树立起了文化品牌。

口碑与票房的双丰收，归功于《咏春》出色的品质和创新性的出海商演模式。《咏春》改变以往文化出海项目政府全资保障方式，采取市场化商演模式在全球演艺之都伦敦西区、音乐剧的摇篮巴黎会议宫演出，其较大规模、较多场次的市场化运营在中国舞剧艺术“走出去”的发展史上，还尚无先例。

随着粤产文艺持续走向国际，海外观众必将领略到更多岭南优秀文化的韵味。
