One of the countries in the play has local people who stand on clouds of different colors, and the tutor Liu Mingpeng assigned the children the task of acting out the colors for the other teams to guess.

The team for "red" designed a short scene about firefighting and invited Liu to perform as the fire, but instead of water, it was red apples that came out of the hoses.

"Usually it's the teachers who design the characters and the plots, but this exercise was filled with uncontrollable, unimaginable and whimsical plot twists. To interact and communicate with the children during the process, and enter their world of imagination, was a wonderful and unforgettable experience," Liu says.

"This state of devotion and concentration is the best acting. We are not teaching the children to imitate, but to inspire and guide them to discover themselves."

Fan Xiaofan, a child actress in the play, says: "Each of the countries in the play has different characteristics, which are the reflections of human nature. We are presenting these diverse sides of human nature to the audience in a lighthearted way. Apart from being an adventure, it is also a girl's coming-of-age story."
