What could we enjoy in spring? Go for a spring outing, have a pleasant City Walk, or sit in the theater for wonderful dramas...
In April, Shanghai Jing’an Modern Drama Valley released the “2024 Drama Map”. Residents and theater enthusiasts are welcome to explore the rich drama culture within theaters, libraries, vibrant business districts, and historic Shikumen buildings based on this map while documenting their journey by collecting stamps.
Upon opening the “Drama Map”, you will find all 21 locations clearly marked, encompassing theaters and public cultural service venues such as libraries, as well as renowned business districts. Residents can pick up a map from the dedicated check-in stand at any location within Modern Drama Valley, starting their journey of drama exploration. They can exchange prizes based on the number of stamps collected.
In the Majestic Theater, Ms. Wang is stamping the first mark on the map according to instructions. “It’s interesting and novel. It turns out that Jing’an has so many drama elements. I plan to visit every location and enshrine this map after collecting all the stamps,” Ms. Wang said. She added that Drama Valley’s offerings fuel her passion for dramas year after year. Surprisingly, this year’s “date” with drama extends beyond the theater, including a delightful city walk as well.
Apart from the 21 check-in sites, residents can obtain the map at nine designated locations, including the Mao Zedong’s Former Residence Exhibition Gallery on North Maoming Road and the Daning Theatre.
