However, current studies on Lahunqiang opera costumes mostly examines design features (e.g., colour, patterns, accessories) and seldom explore relationships between costumes and actors. This study examined the effect of Lahunqiang opera costumes on five common physical movements of 10 male actors. Through data collection and analysis, the study extracted five factors (crotch, length, left knee, right knee and waist-hip) to describe opera actors  physical movements. The study adds to the scant research on Lahunqiang opera costumes and provides a reference point for further studies on the heritage, protection and development of local drama costumes.  a1942-3438
