"Insights into the Cross-Boundary Performances of Cantonese Opera Artists" Seminar - Nov 16, 2024

The Ina Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre at Hong Kong Metropolitan University and the Hong Kong & Macau Intangible Cultural Heritage Research Center will co-host a public lecture titled “Insights into the Cross-Boundary Performances of Cantonese Opera Artists” on November 16, 2024 (Saturday). We welcome everyone to register and participate!

Professor Fredric Mao Chun-fai, affectionately known as “Mao Sir,” previously held two seminars at HKMU on the themes of “Innovation” and “Tradition,” sharing his insights on opera creation and stage production. This time, Mao Sir has invited four Cantonese opera actors—Mr Keith Lai Yiu-wai, Lee Qiuyuan, Ms Leung Fei-tung, and Mr Ng Lap-hei—to discuss their experiences with cross-boundary performances from an actor’s perspective.

The public lecture “Cross-boundary Performances of Cantonese Opera Actors” is co-hosted by the Ina Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre at Hong Kong Metropolitan University and the Hong Kong & Macau Intangible Cultural Heritage Research Center, as part of the “Jockey Club Mao Chun Fai Theatre Art Research and Creation Project” series.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from these talented actors! Please register for the seminar via the link below. We look forward to seeing you soon!
