Brief introduction about Glastonbury Festival
Dating back to the 1970s, Glastonbury (英国)格拉斯顿伯里Festival is a music and arts festival that takes place on a large farm in Somerset 萨默塞特 in South-west England. Most of the organisers are volunteers and much of the money raised from ticket sales goes to charity. Many famous bands have performed at the festival over the years, and the number of people attending has grown to about 200.000.

It combines music, vocal performance, mime (哑剧), dance and acrobatics (杂技); the instruments include jinghu and erhu.
Mask is very important; the costumes are graceful, elegant (优雅的) and brilliant in color and design. They both tell a character’s sex (性别) and status (身份地位) at first glance.
Stages are square platforms exposed to the audience on three sides with very few props (道具) on the stage.
Dance movements and acrobatic movements are basic skills.
Peking Opera:
Everything is sung instead of being spoken.
It combines a number of performing arts, such as acting, scenery, costume, and sometimes dance or ballet.
The singers are on the stage. The orchestra is in front of the stage but lower down in the pit (凹陷处).

Hathaway, it is defnitely a movie you should not miss!
Mia Thermopolis.
2. Who is the main character
Mia, a socially awkward American girl, becomes princess of Genovia when her long-absent father, the Crown Prince, dies. She’s taught how to behave perfectly. However, things get out of hand when the media gets hold of the story, putting Mia in the spotlight. On top of this, she must make a choice between continuing the normal life of a San Francisco teen and stepping up to the throne.
About the main character
The movie explores the theme of responsibility in an intelligent and humorous way. The most memorable scene is towards the end of the movie when, during Mia’s darkest moment of self-doubt, she is touched by a letter her father left her. “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.”(勇气不是没有恐惧,而是判断出还有比恐惧更重要的东西!) It’s one of the most unforgettable lines from the movie.
3. What is the most memorable scene in the movie
The most memorable scene
The Princess Diaries is an interesting movie. It’s about being and bettering yourself, and about knowing who your real friends are. Watch it now!
