HCM CITY– Veteran and young cai luong (reformed theatre) artists will perform at the HCM City Drama Theatre for a charity show this month to raise funds for poor theatre artists.
The concert, Ket Noi Thien Tam (Connecting with Love), will feature Meritorious Artist Tu Suong and cai luong star Kim Ngan, together with young talents from traditional art troupes.
Extracts from historical plays such as Thai Hau Duong Van Nga (Queen Duong Van Nga) and Tran Quoc Toan (Young Hero Tran Quoc Toan) will be performed.
Featured performances will be staged by Suong, who has more than 30 years of experience in the theatre.
Suong has won several top prizes at national theatre festivals and competitions, including the Golden Prize for best actress at Tran Huu Trang Awards presented by HCM City Theatre Artists’ Association in 2015.
She works for Tran Huu Trang Theatre, one of the region’s leading traditional art troupes, and has performed as a lead actress in dozens of quality plays.
Suong and her colleagues will perform for free. All proceeds will be given to help poor artists, elderly artists and backstage workers.
