Immerse into the atmosphere of behind the scenes of Chinese Teochew Opera
Teochew opera is a fast disappearing trade that few understand and even fewer practise. The art form survives today through second- and third-generation performers, and usually emerges during key religious events such as the Hungry Ghost Festival, one of Singapore’s last vestiges of tradition. You have a chance to go behind the scenes, meet the artists, see their preparations and even try the costumes and make ups on.
