Ópera de Pekín
The Jingju Theater Troupe was founded by the merger of the Southern Jiangsu Peking Opera Troupe and the Northern Jiangsu Experimental Peking Opera Group. In 1953, it was renamed the Jiangsu Peking Opera Troupe. Seven years later, the Nanjing and Yangzhou Peking opera troupes combined with it to form the Jiangsu Province Peking Opera Institute. It has operated for more than fifty years and was named "National Key Peking Opera Troupe" by China's Ministry of Culture in 2005.
