Timeline label: Evelyn D'Alroy as Turandot in 'Turandot, Princess of China'
Image caption: As interest in China grew around the turn of the century in the 1900s, the arts began to focus on the country as a subject of interest. Watching the plays that were written during this time period was the first time that many individuals were exposed to China in any way other than simply hearing about politics. However, because of the way that most Europeans viewed individuals who are native to other continents, there were only caucasian actors and actresses who took on the roles.; 1900年代初，随着欧洲人对中国的兴趣越来越大，人们开始在这个国家创作艺术品。除了在政治上听说中国之外，许多人还是第一次观看戏剧来了解中国。但是，由于大多数欧洲人对待其他大陆人的想法，只有演员的白人扮演中国人。
