Chinese Opera in Singapore
A first and last performance for me from this Chinese opera troupe, I was watching the ending, the finale scene,
and it was acted out with so much melancholy, I felt an unknown sadness run through me as I thought of this being
the last scene. But more than just me, it was the audiences whose sadness you could sense, as it all comes to an end.
The curtain drops and the show ends.
“天下无不散之宴席”
I have been doing this for 50 years now, since I was 16, I have been performing, but I’m tired now,
“天下无不散之宴席”
I have been doing this for 50 years now, since I was 16, I have been performing, but I’m tired now,
we are all old. Doing an opera takes up a lot of your energy, and I have became tired since.
