CAEG will be promoting the work of these companies with the intention of arranging productions at performing arts venues in the United States. CAEG will be located at booth #2307 in Americas Hall II during the conference.

CAEG is pleased to highlight the following companies at APAP 2017:

– China National Symphony Orchestra
– China National Peking Opera Company

Each of these companies will be promoting specific works of Chinese drama, dance, opera, or theatre for production in the United States. One of CAEG’s chief goals in showcasing the work of these nine national performing arts companies in the United States is the promotion of global, intercultural understanding and the exchange of art and ideas.

“CAEG is delighted to be back at APAP in New York City this year,” said Mr. Wang Xiuqin, Director of Cultural Exchanges Division, CAEG. “Our goal is to share with the world the great works produced and performed by these wonderful Chinese companies, and to build bridges between international cultures through the unique and transformative power of the performing arts. We look forward to future productions from these companies in America and around the globe.” ‘)}
