Great efforts have been made in every aspect of the entire dance drama. The dance drama takes the love between Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai as the main line, and selects important scenes such as "Daiyu enters Jia's house", "Concubine Yuan visits the bride", "Daiyu buries flowers" and "burns manuscripts to end infatuation"; the narrative adopts the traditional chapter novel. Characteristics: each of the twelve dance sections has its own title, which is independent but can be connected in series; the visual arrangement uses the aesthetic characteristics of Qing Dynasty ancient paintings, aiming to show dignified and elegant dance group images; the stage layout and modeling design use rich Chinese elements in many places. The unique classical symbols, the image and color of each costume and scenery follow the original work, faithfully restoring the original meaning of the original work. In terms of characterization, women are connected with the life of flowers, so that the image of flowers runs throughout the play, and is reflected in the styling and clothing of each female character - especially the design of the cloud shoulders. The blooming and withering of flowers is used as a metaphor for the joys and sorrows of separation and separation, fully demonstrating the human beauty and Chinese beauty of the original work.
The original ethnic dance drama "Dream of Red Mansions" won the National Arts Fund's 2023 funding project and was the winning work of the 13th Chinese Dance "Lotus Award" Dance Drama Award.
