Dear Eric,
I’m glad to hear that you are interested in Chinese cross talk and I’m writing to introduce Ma Sanli, one of the most famous Chinese performing artists of cross talk.
Ma Sanli was born on October 1, 1914 and died on February 11,2003. At an early age, he had cross talk because of the poverty of his family. It was in 1930 that he started to perform on the stage. During his whole life, he created a large number of excellent works, many of which are still popular among people now. His unique style has a postive effect on the development of Chinese cross-talk and he is considered as a master of humour. You can appreciate this works on Chinese artist website.
Wish you great progress in your learning of Chinese cross talk.
Yours,
Li Hua
