用下面短文中的信息完成簡(jiǎn)介。

  The opera house in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is one of the most beautiful in the United States.It is small and open, with one roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience.This opera house in the mountain is one of the best in the country, which may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in the summer, and because Santa Fe is a very small city.

  One reason why the Santa Fe Opera is so good is that it attracts many excellent young singers.They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolitan in New York someday, and they work hard to become well-known during the summer.The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras(管弦樂(lè)隊(duì))and operas in the country during their vacations.They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe, which is near both the mountains and the desert.It is very beautiful there in summer.

  The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country, and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera.Still, most of the audience does come from Santa Fe and other nearby cities, and all the seats in the theater are sold for every show.

  There is only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera, and that is the cold weather.Because the theater is open, performances cannot start before it gets dark at nine o’clock in the evening, and then the mountain air becomes very cool.Sometimes people complain about the cold air, but because the operas are good, these people come back again wearing warm coats.

  Will crosstalk become extinct? Several years ago, people could switch on the TV and very often would find a crosstalk performance being broadcast.Today, a person could sit in front of the TV set for seven days a week,24 hours a day, and still have trouble finding a single crosstalk show.Many people who were born before the late 1970s can remember a long list of crosstalk performers:Ma Sanli, Feng Gong, Hou Yaowen, Jiang Kun, Li Jindou, Ma Ji, Niu Qun, Su Wenmao.In mid-1980s,many of these performers frequently appeared on television programmes in short comedy skits.But most of them have since disappeared from public view.Only a few-such as Feng Gong, Jiang Kun and Niu Qun-remain fresh in people’s memory thanks to their performances at China Central Television’s annual Spring Festival evening show.These performers, however, are unwilling to devote all their time to crosstalk.Feng has been trying his hand at movies, and Niu worked as a magazine editor for a while before taking up a job as deputy county magistrate in Anhui Province.

  When the art form first made its appearance 150 years ago, performers would put on shows outside or at temple fairs.Its fans were mainly farmers, peddlers and artisans.Many old crosstalk artists performed in the Tianqiao area in old Beijing, where performances of folk art were concentrated.However, for that reason, crosstalk was looked down upon and the performances were regarded as shows for the lower classes at that time.Open-air performances also allowed interaction between artists and audiences, which helped keep the art form full of vitality.The humor of crosstalk is characterized by close observation of ordinary people’s lives.

  While there were hundreds of full-time writers engaged in composing interesting comic routines in the 1950s, there are few professional writers of crosstalk nowadays.Almost all the former crosstalk writers have chosen to move into TV and film scripts, which makes more money and can be done more quickly as well.But there are also new crosstalk scripts, many created by amateur writers.But most of their work lacks appeal because, on the whole, it merely eulogizes what is good in Chinese society, rather than criticizing and satirizing problems, experts said.As a result, few modern crosstalk routines have become popular as the old ones.

  Some experts have called for crosstalk to adapt to keep pace with the rapidly changing world.Crosstalk seems to have a long road ahead before it can prosper as it did in the past.
