Cantonese opera was inscribed onto the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009 and its early development is closely related to Hong Kong. The TWGHs archives shed light on Cantonese opera performances in Hong Kong during the 19th century, offering information on their peroforming venues, the names of the opera troupes as well as their contribution to charitable causes. Utilising the archives of Tung Wah and other historical materials, the speaker will explore the transformation of Cantonese opera from rural festive entertainment to an urban theatrical performance, and how Cantonese opera singers have progressively gained social recognition. |
