Ayoung woman sits before a table and mirror in a large and quiet classroom and applies face powder, rouge and eyebrow pencil before a semicircle of spectators. A palace floor lantern, antique furniture, wash painting scrolls and callig- raphy adorn the room. While the woman, a Peking opera actress, puts on gold embroi-dered robes and shining jewelry, a man in typical Chinese-style coat, stands beside the table and explains to the audience the significance of Peking opera makeup and costumes.
