DA NANG (VNS) — Da Nang's Nguyen Hien Dinh Theatre will hold its first outdoor night performance of tuong (classic drama) on Sunday.

Artists from the theatre will tell tourists how to make up for a tuong character.

Visitors will also be invited to try on a costume and take photos.

Last month, Tuong Xu Quang (Quang Nam's classic drama) was recognised as part of the National Intangible Heritage.

The city has a collection of 204 classical tuong scripts, written in Han (Chinese) and Vietnamese ideographic characters (Nom), and published between 1802-45. — VNS
