The 65th anniversary of the Canto-opera classic Floral Princess. English & Chinese surtitles
The Remake of Floral Princess Professional Edition harmonizes TONG Tik-sang’s stage version and his film version. The 160-minute condensed version has a newly added scene of Emperor Sung-zing’s self-reprimand and suicide. “Palace engulfed in flames……Love obscured by surreal events”: a dialogue with the present era after experiencing turbulent times. We go beyond tradition, fusing art x technology: exquisite, minimalist production, tailor-made designs of grand mobile stage, projections, lighting, rearranged music and Harmonic Canto-opera Audio (HCA) for magnificent brand-new contemporary visuals and theatre acoustics, and a new level of beauty and chic.
