Cha Duk Chang Original Children's Cantonese Opera "Why Why Da Feng Xiang"

Through lively characters—like the timid Xiao Wu and the gods who guide him—audiences will discover the intricacies of stage design, costumes, and music, dismantling the stereotype that traditional opera is difficult to understand.
