Lonely Planet review

This touristy theatre, across the lobby of the Qianmen Jianguo Hotel and past the mannequins outside, has regular performances for Beijing opera greenhorns, performed over servings of Peking duck and other local delicacies. The setting isn't traditional and it resembles a cinema auditorium (the stage façade is the only authentic touch), but there are also matinee shows of gōngfu (kung fu) performed by Shaolin monks .
