Special Report:   2008 Spring Festival

One of the programs they'll look forward to in Hong Kong is CCTV's Spring Festival Gala. In our regular look at preparations for the CCTV Gala, we turn the spotlight on stage design. It's all about creating magic, giving the audience an unforgettable view of one of the world's most glittering performances.

The unadorned stage has had a face lift. 

The unadorned stage has had a face lift. As the curtain rises, this year's stage design has already won high acclaim from audiences taking part in the first two rehearsals.

Chen Linchun, director, said, "The stage design involves more high technology than ever. The stage is surrounded by screens. There is one huge LED high-definition at the back of the stage. And there are screens on each pillar. The screens will show pictures that vary with the program."
