ArtsEd in Chat - A Dialogue with Hong Hoi: The Ten-Year Practice Behind the Scene
Hong Hoi
Head of Production (Chinese Opera)
School of Chinese Opera of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts
As early as the beginning of the 20th century, Western theatre started to make reference to actor training methodology and performing forms from the East. Chinese opera is no doubt one of the most influential. In Chinese opera, both actor training and performing forms focus on the core techniques of 'singing, reciting, acting and acrobatic movement', all actualized through the actor's body. Chinese opera actors are required to possess all-round performing skills. The symbolic expression in 'acting' and 'acrobatic movement', in particular, exemplifies the artistic quality of Chinese opera that requires the traversing between reality and imagination. ArtsEd in Chat has invited instructor Hong Hai and two young actors from the School of Chinese opera of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts to demonstrate fundamental techniques and explain the symbolic and formulaic natures in Chinese opera.

About the Class:
The classes will be conducted by Jacko Ng and Zoe Chou. Jacko’s class will be focusing on floor work and traveling with least amount of effort, discovering how our physical body reacts to the floor and space. Through laws of motion, dancers should be able to push beyond boundaries, extremities and enjoy the intensity of our movements. And Zoe will be giving a class combining both Chinese & Contemporary dance technique! The fundamental practice consists of fullness and emptiness. Through exercises we will unfold creative potential and look for a deeper inner freedom.

Scripting HK's dramatic future (11.1.2012)
Local drama director Fredric Mao has devoted most of his career to injecting a unique Hong Kong flavour into his productions. He joined the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts's School of Drama as Head of Acting when it was established in 1985, and helped train a new generation of local talent. From 2001 to 2008, he was Artistic Director of the Hong Kong Repertory Theatre. His productions won kudos not just from a local audience, but also when they toured Mainland China and abroad.
Mao's latest work, The Liaisons, builds on his success. The contemporary romance interwoven with traditional characters of Cantonese opera classic The Legend of the Purple Hairpin interprets the romance and enduring love depicted in the classic in a modern context. ( )
