　　Ode to Peace, an innovative play performed by nearly 1,000 students and teachers from an art college in Dalian was staged at the Great Hall of the People on Tuesday.

　　It was loudly applauded by an audience of over 6,000, including diplomats and overseas students."We try to advocate the theme of our time while providing more practices to our students and teachers，" said Wang Xianjun, chairman of the board of Dalian Art College, which organized the performance.

　　The play showed people's desire for world peace by reawakening the memories of historical events.

　　It presented the trips of imperial envoy Zhang Qian to the Western regions that opened up the world­famous Silk Road, the voyage of Zheng He, who led trade expeditions to west Asia and east Africa and memories of World War Ⅱ.

　　The performance combined symphony, Chinese folk music, chorus and recitation, as well as colorful dances featuring Chinese drum and long sleeves, Indian dance, Spanish flamenco dance and Russia folk dance.

　　"I'm sure that our students and teachers will cherish this performance at the Great Hall. Definitely, they are the biggest beneficiaries，" Wang said.

　　The Administrative Committee of Dalian Jinpu New District and the college sponsored the performance with support from the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, China Friendship Art Exchange Association and the Administrative Committee of Dalian Jinpu New District.

　　"Art has no nationality. DAC's practice in advocating Chinese culture through art could be acceptable，" said Wang Heshan, general secretary of the art exchange association.

　　"We hope DAC can contribute more to non­governmental art exchange with people from other countries，" he said.
