Abstract This article focuses on how the Chinese Communist Party ( CCP ) used stage drama as propaganda during the revolutionary period. It argues that the CCP utilized different types of stage dramas to connect rural populations to its ideological goals. Based on the studies of David Holm, Brian DeMare, and Chang-tai Hung, this work analyzes how the CCP influenced public opinion through popular culture from 1927 to 1949. By examining different drama performances and their changes, this study emphasizes the central role of stage drama in creating a revolutionary identity among the Chinese people.
