Cantonese Opera - Behind the Masks Tour

Cantonese opera involves much more than just traditional culture and heritage. It is a fine art that includes fluid and graceful body movements and expressions. The drama in any opera comes from the elaborate and flamboyant costumes, exquisite wigs and colourful make-up worn by the actors.

This programme is designed especially for foreign speaking audiences to allow them to get fully immersed in Cantonese opera. Participants will be introduced to the music acting techniques, and face painting.
