参考译文
Mulian Opera
Mulian Opera, originally called Yiyang Opera, originated in the riverside area of Yiyang and was ever popular in Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces. It is the only historical religious opera existing in China. This opera is performed for folk activities, and is so named because it mainly performs the story of Mulian saving his mother. Its performance incorporates traditional opera, dancing, acrobatics and martial arts, and still keeps its rustic and primitive nature. In 2006, Mulian Opera was included in the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List.
