| Description | The setting is simple: a table and two chairs. In one sits the musician playing his instrument. In the other is the story teller with his fan. Even to the uninitiated, Shanghai Lyrics are touching. The music is limpid and full of charm. The drama, the tension, and conflict; the tumultuous action and turbulent emotions of the narrative are only presented in delicate nuance. The Festival programme will include excerpt from the classics, The Three Kingdoms, Water Margin and Dream of the Red Chamber. | |||||
