1790 CE

Peking Opera—a form of Chinese opera that combines music, vocal performance, mime, dance, and acrobatics—has its precursor on September 25, when the "Four Great Anhui Troupes" introduce Anhui opera (Huiju) to Beijing, in honor of the Qianlong Emperor's eightieth birthday.

The performance is originally staged for the court and will only later be made available to the public.
