Educational Opera Blog

-
Scene - Me and May sitting in a corner of XGC KTV.

Me: You saw my blog on steps to do gzx hair?

May: Ya I saw.

Me: Do you think it's stupid?

May: Ya, it's stupid lor.

Me: OMG, How can you say it's stupid? I am a good friend ok. XJ said that it's cute.

Apparently, May thought that my hair styling entry is stupid lor. It's not stupid because it is an educational entry. My opera blog is an EDUCATIONAL OPERA BLOG ok...

There are people who might be interested in opera but hate to read chinese right? So I can write educational posts in english for the benefits of those people.

(Though I think most people who read my blog already know all these opera information)

Singaporeans generally read english better than chinese so I am doing something very noble. wOOt~

Please support my educational opera blog and the occasional nonsensical entries. If you would like to donate money to me, please PM me for my bank account. Thank you! (LOL)

A very crowded troupe

3 more students joined COI. That officially makes COI GZX troupe a very crowded troupe. In fact, overly crowded. There are 21 students now and including Ang, we will have 22 actresses/actors. Ang is going to have problems squeezing in all the students into 1 show. I don't think there are lots of shows which have 22 roles. Bao Hua and Zhu Ying has joined us for some time so they are not considered newbie already (MD mentioned that they are newbies in his blog). The 3 newbies I am talking about are Wanru, Si Qing and Ai Qing. Si Qing and Ai Qing are not sisters. They just happened to have 'Qing' in their names. I have not taken pictures of Siqing and Aiqing but I will try to take some and blog. I have got a few pics of Wanru but I will blog another day. As usual, Ang did her usual rounds of asking whether the newbies want to be dan or be shengs. Frankly speaking, both roles are overly crowded already. Competition is getting strong but still, we are still harmoniously getting ...

Yesterday we had a performance at Holland Road Blk 2. I was doing the excerpt 'Broken Bridge' of Madam white snake and the others were doing Tang Bo Hu. I couldn't find a Xu Xian (YH dun like this role) so I got no choice but to ask Naiba for help. Heng he was free that day to help us. Kanglong found a very nice spot to take photos and everyone took photos at that spot.... I think this spot is nice too with the pillar behind and the flowers and the white background... Me and Naiba... Hmm, too bad his face kana hidden in shadow lor. Susan as green snake. I didn't realise that she was wearing the costume wrongly lor.. haiz, too late to inform her liao...

N+1

I was browsing the internet looking at opera related videos when I came across a song 'N+1' sang by Chris Lee. Man, I was surprised by the opera elements in the song! She combined hip hop and chinese opera (like Jay and Lee Hom) and the MTV is quite nice. It's like abit of hip hop dance and some chinese opera. Chris Lee even dressed up in opera 'wu dan' costume! Hee hee, but she looked a bit weird. Her actions are good but looks wise, weird. Ok, the MTV. I should learn to sing this song. Lol...
