HCM CITY —  A theatre show featuring dozens of veteran and young talents in cai luong (reformed opera) will take place at the Le Hoang Stage in HCM City to celebrate 30 years of the HCM City Theatre Magazine. 

The show will feature cai luong stars Minh Vuong, Phuong Loan and Cam Tien, who played a role in the theatre’s development in the south. 

For more than 30 years, these artists have performed in hundreds of plays and TV shows and trained many young talents of different generations.

They will offer performances of vong co (nostalgic tunes), cai luong (reformed opera) and tuong or hat boi (classical drama), traditional genres of theatre in the southern and central regions. 

Extracts from famous cai luong and tuong plays, such as Loan Chien Phuong Hoang Cung (War of Throne) and Thai Hau Duong Van Nga (Mother Queen Duong Van Nga), both productions featuring historical events and characters, will also be featured. 

Meritorious Artist Loan will perform in Thai Hau Duong Van Nga.

She will play Mother Queen Nga, who served as Queen Regent of Dinh Dynasty after her husband, Dinh Tien Hoang, was assassinated in 979, but her son was still 6 years old.

Young actors Truong Giang and Thuy My will also be featured.

The show will begin at 8pm on October 26 at Le Hoang Stage in 144 Dinh Tien Hoang Street, Binh Thanh District. Tickets are available at the theatre’s box office. — VNS
