II FESTIVAL BRASIL-CHINA-João Pessoa-PB: Many top circus shows, tetras, musicals, martial arts, folklore and - II BRAZIL-CHINA FESTIVAL IN JOÃO PESSOA-PB-23 ON 02/25/24. I was on vacation in Jampa, when I attended the Festival above, at Teatro do Espaço Cultural José Lins do Rego, where the Opening took place and its musical and dance part took place: Cia. Raízes de Campina Grande + Duetos do Brasil e da China + Quintet from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (northeastern and Chinese songs) + many other performances. In other places in the gigantic José Lins do Rego Space, I think it has dozens of them, s.m.j designed by Oscar Niemeyer, countless other performances were held, such as lantern making, face painting, Chinese paintings, scented sachets and dozens of such things, for the kids. For adults, we had Tai Chi, Kung Fu, martial and fan fighting performances, unforgettable and electrifying! The Organization of this II Festival, WHICH IS INTENDED TO BE PRESENTED EVERY YEAR, IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY, before or after Carnival, the high season of tourism in Porto, is the responsibility of the Chinese Embassy in Brasília and its Consulate in Recife and the Government of Paraíba. More: Federal Universities of Paraíba and Rio Grande do Norte and University of Foreign Languages of China. The figure of the Ambassador of China, Dr. ZHU QUINGQIAO, a young man aged 56, graduated in Arts, should be highlighted, this last item must have contributed to the high level of this Festival and Messrs. HE YANGWEI and WANG KE from the Chinese Consulate in Recife, later replaced, on 2/26/24, by the new Consul LAN HEPING, also trained in Arts. Plus Governor João Azevêdo and government authorities from Paraíba, who certainly contributed a lot to the realization of such an event, could even become an excellent artistic complement for visiting tourists in the high tourist seasons of the NE. In the long term, and with performances throughout the Northeast and even Brazil, think about bringing the very international Circus of China, Chinese Opera, prime folk groups from China and others like that...
