介绍:
10. Mid-Autumn Festival 中秋节 [00:02.68]On 25th September this year, people all over China [00:07.01]will be getting together to eat with their families, [00:10.20]look at the moon and celebrate one of the biggest festivals [00:13.40]in the Chinese lunar calendar. [00:15.29]However, the celebrations stretch [00:17.64]far beyond the borders of China. [00:20.05]Here in the UK [00:21.27]events are taking place for Chinese people living here, [00:24.53]and to teach the people of Britain [00:26.52]more about this popular festival. [00:28.85]The Soho Theatre in London conducted a study [00:32.61]which showed that Chinese Londoners [00:34.64]don't engage much with the arts world. [00:37.55]As a result, 'Moon walking In China [00:40.50]has been created to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. [00:43.60]This is no normal theatre production though, [00:46.85]as it doesn't take place in the theatre. [00:49.46]Theatre professionals and volunteers from the local community [00:53.11]will take audiences around the streets of Soho [00:56.11]on a magical lantern-lit walk [00:58.36]through the landmarks and backstreets of Chinatown.
