The formulation of performance on actor’s bodies is one of the most charming aesthetic points in traditional Chinese theatre. However, it is still an interesting question to ask “Why are there so many formulas and regulations of bodies given to the actors who should have more space to show their creativities?” During the time when mass media had not exist yet, dramas were viewed as important governmental tools for the regime to propagandize the rules and ethic dogma to the citizens. Thus, actors’ bodies should be trained as the “ideal bodies” to meet the demand of the rulers. As Foucault said, it is “By what means power is exercised.” That matters instead of “What power is.” In this article, I will discuss how the state machines internalize their norms into the theatre and influence the type of the performance. It is not only the art of bodies, but also the body politics.
