In the COF speaker series, a veteran performer, a dedicated educator, and a cultural scholar will share their insights, personal stories and reflections on Singapore’s Chinese opera scene. From their first encounters with the art form to the challenges they have faced through the years, to changing audience dynamics and aspirations for the future, each talk offers a unique perspective on the preservation and evolution of this Chinese traditional performing art form. Join us for three inspiring and insightful journeys into how local Chinese opera continues to adapt and flourish in Singapore, and learn how local opera practitioners, educators, and enthusiasts are preserving, promoting and passing on its legacy to future generations.
