As a master of Chinese Peking Opera and cultural envoy,MEI Lanfang once visited Japan,the United States,and the So-viet Union.In particular,the visit to the United States in1930 and the Soviet Union in1935 brought Chinese opera(Xiqu)to the world and won the recognition of the"Other"in the western drama circle,which indirectly or directly affected the development of the practice and theory of the eastern and western drama.MEI Lanfang's profound influence overseas is not limited to his short stay during the visit and performance,as it is still a topic of scholars at home and abroad.Since the 1990s,the English academic com-munity has interpreted MEI Lanfang's performing art from the perspectives of international communication and intercultural theatre by positioning it in the world pattern of the eastern and western drama and the cultural context,which has rendered new research methods and theoretical perspectives.By sorting out the important achievements of MEI Lanfang's research in the English academic community over the past 30 years and analyzing their theoretical perspectives and features,we may promote our understanding of the exchange of the eastern and western drama in terms of methodology.
