Pingju originated in Tangshan, Hebei, near the city of Tianjin.[1] Among all China's regional operas, it was the most famous in the Republican period for its passionate performances and romantic plots.[2]
Movies based upon and incorporating Pingju include Zhang Shichuan's 1936 Red Begonia(t海棠紅,s海棠红,Hǎitáng Hóng), starring Bai Yushuang.[3]
