Facing the current severe and complex pandemic situation, as part of an art university, what should we do and how should we do? In this special period, we will truly record every bit of the actions taken by the teachers, students and staff of the Shanghai Theatre Academy. Art is a kind of warmth, art is also a kind of power, art can bring strength to others, and art can also inspire ourselves. Move forward with art! The pandemic is only temporary, but art will last forever.
Since the implementation of quasi lockdown on campus, we have temporarily suspended offline teaching and had much less face-to-face communication. During such a special period of time, why don't we let ourselves read and observe more? No matter under what circumstances, human thinking and dialogue never stop.
In order to let everyone have access to more good books and movies during the pandemic, the department of teachers work office under the party committee of Shanghai Theatre Academy solicited a number of recommended works from the heads of various colleges and departments as well as the affiliated Chinese opera school and affiliated dance school for all of us who are experiencing the battle against the pandemic to read and watch, which are as follows.
