Mall celebrates anniversary in song

Dances, opera, poetry and singing on Saturday at the Aegean Place shopping mall in Minhang District attracted passing shoppers to stop and watch.

The opening ceremony of the “A+Life” by the mall and Shanghai Morning Post’s all-media platform Zhoudao, promotes cultural activities in public spaces.

It’s also part of the celebrations for the mall's second anniversary, a one-stop complex featuring experiential consumption for young people, families and communities.

The ceremony started with a dance from the movie “La La Land” and went on to classic episodes of Yueju opera performed by children. 

As new garbage-sorting regulations came into effect in July, a team also staged a performance using garbage bins as drums. Students from Shanghai Guangming High School also recited a French poem and sang a French song. The ceremony ended with the a Korean Nanta show.
