In (truncated) China, revolutionary operas or model operas (Chinese: yangban xi, 样板戏) were a series of shows planned and engineered during the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) by Jiang Qing, the wife of Chairman Mao Zedong.[1] They were considered revolutionary and modern in terms of thematic and musical features when compared with traditional Chinese operas. Many of them were adapted to film.

Originally, eight revolutionary operas (Chinese: Ba Ge Yangban Xi, 八个样板戏) were produced, eighteen by the end of the period. Instead of the "emperors, kings, generals, chancellors, maidens, and beauties" of the traditional Peking opera, which was banned as "feudalistic and bourgeois," they told stories from China's recent revolutionary struggles against foreign and class enemies. They glorified the People's Liberation Army and the bravery of the common people and showed Mao Zedong and his thought as playing the central role in the victory of socialism in China. Although they originated as operas, they soon appeared on LPs, in comic books (lianhuanhua), on posters, postcards, and stamps; on plates, teapots, wash basins, cigarette packages, vases, and calendars. They were performed or played from loudspeakers in schools, factories, and fields by special performing troupes. The Eight Model Operas dominated the stage in all parts of the country during these years, leading to the joke "Eight hundred million people watched eight shows."
本剧是文革时期的八大样板戏之一《智取威虎山》，由毛主席夫人江青负责制作和演出。很多被拍成了电影。
最初有八个样板戏，后来在文革时期的后期发展到了18个。不像因封建和资产阶级的被禁了的传统京剧，里面出现的中的国王大臣少女和美人，革命现代京剧主要讲述中国近年来的抗战故事，宣扬人民解放军的光辉荣耀和毛主席的英勇。虽然是京剧，很快就变成了各种形式出现在连环画、海报、明信片、邮票、香烟、花瓶、日历等各种地方，用扩音喇叭在学校、工厂等地方，由演出团进行表演。8个样板戏主导了全国所有的舞台，因此有了8亿人看8个剧的笑话。 (Inventory #: AG-10054)
