A Night of Cantonese Opera IV @ The Actors Studio, Lot 10, Jalan Sultan Ismail, Kuala Lumpur (07 - 09/10/10)
Executive Producer: Dato Faridah Merican
Artistic Director: Joe Hasham OAM
Director: Kam Sin Kiew
Mention Cantonese Opera and most people will instantly conjure up images of its colorful costumes, distinct make ups, melodramatic stories as well as beautiful music. Back when TVs and DVDs were not yet available, such performances were the main form of entertainment for most people. There was something about this age-old art form that enthralled and entertained audiences year after year.
The Actors Studio through its Teater Rayat programme will be attempting to revive the glorious days of Cantonese Opera with an on-going series. The huge success of the very first installment in 2009 paved the way for the second, third, and now fourth installment this October.
Cantonese opera exponent from Hong Kong, Madam Kam, will once again lead her talented group of local performers in this special edition held in conjunction with The Actors Studio @ Lot 10’s first birthday. A Night of Cantonese Opera IV will feature eight delightful pieces spread across two sets. The first set comprises The Lu an Province, Romance of the Phoenix Court, The Broken Sedan Chair, Life of a Beloved Princess while the second set comprises White Dragon Barrie, A Miracle of the Feud, Two Butterflies in Flight and The Child of a Fairy Maiden.
Take a step back in time and enter the magical world of Cantonese Opera…
(There will be scene descriptions in English)
“… it was clearly Kam who won admiration for her art and the art form. She revealed a stature in both voice and acting that gave the most pleasure…A Night of Cantonese Opera III was an admirable effort and Kam’s clever programming of excerpts gave art lovers a glimpse into the rare pleasure of Chinese theatre.” Lam Ghooi Ket, New Straits Times, 2010
“Art lovers should catch it at least once to marvel at the grace and effortless acting by seasoned artists.” Visithra Manikam, Asia Dance Channel, 2009
