In Fukienese rural villages, besides celebrations of the gods which have economic benefits in mind, state-sponsored dramatic operations have the responsibility of spreading the official line, as for example in modern dramas encouraging birth control or extolling some new positive and condemning the corresponding negative. These accompany the traditionally-costumed Hsiang Opera and are performed everywhere in turn.
