Li Ya Xian
Finally after so long, SL is going to stage a full length liyuanxi! Isn't that exciting? For don't know how many donkey years, SL have not staged any full length show mainly because of the financial constrain.
However, there have been quite a number of ppl asking us when are we going to stage another full length show and then the chance came when Esplanade approached SL to perform for dunno what event.
We are going to put up the full length show of Li Ya Xian in the Recital studio on 11 Aug.
Since this is out first full length show after such a long break, SL is very determined to make it a good one.. even if we lose some money.
But I think we still do not have enough actors. We have enough actors for the main cast but we do not have enough ppl for the other smaller roles. Altho these roles (eg. the beggars) appear for like 1 or 2 scenes, their parts are quite hard to learn. If the beggars dun do well in the one and only scene they appear, the whole scene will flop lor. So now we are still thinking about who to pull in to help us with these roles.
Hee hee... but overall I am still very excited about this performance. And such a coincedent too. COI going to perform at Esplanade, SL also going to perform in Esplanade. BTW, our yuniang has been pushed to october le. ~

Anyway, it's said that in Quanzhou's "拍胸舞" dance, this music is usually being used as the accompaniment music, as it seemed that this dance origniates from this show.
I tot the dance in the show originated from the pai xiong wu and not the other way round. I have never seen the dance before but I think they should look almost the same.
