This study examines the modernization of traditional Chinese Baiju opera while preserving its original essence through an exploration of its history, characteristics, and adaptation to contemporary trends. The research uses qualitative methods such as literature review, case studies, and surveys, with limitations including reliance on existing literature and subjective audience feedback. Findings reveal a balance between traditional authenticity and contemporary influences, shedding light on a generational gap in audience acceptance and extending to a broader discussion of preserving traditional arts in a globalized context.
