The National Theatre Company of China (NTCC), established on 25 December 2001, merging the former China Youth Art Theatre and China Central Experimental Modern Drama Theatre, is the state level artistic performing troupe under the Ministry of Culture.
NTCC has attracted a cohort of talents from the fields of stage drama, TV and film arts. It offers a platform where classics from the world theatre, as well as new productions, are represented. It also offers a stage for avant-garde artistic experiments.
During the first year since its establishment, NTCC has presented five plays on its stage, including The Dawns Here Are Silent (Former USSR), The Crucible (USA), The Visit (Switzerland), Head Without Tail, Call Me Brother. It has also brought some plays from the repertoire of the former two national theatres to Shanghai, Hong Kong, Macao, and Japan, in various international theatre festivals.
NTCC will establish and improve a set of art management system, with a new open stage to encourage more artists in their various theatrical experiments, and hence more state-of-art plays to emerge.
The president and party secretary of NTCC is Zhao Youliang, with vice-presidents including Zhou Yuyuan, Huang Xiling and Wang Xiaoying. Yan Fengqi serves as the vice party secretary while Yang Zongjing is the general art supervisor.
