Acclaimed play the 'Mad Phoenix' set to rise from ashes once more
Acclaimed play coming to traditional theatre in West Kowloon after successful run last year
After its first performance in 18 years last year, is returning to the stage once more from February 12 to 25 - this time with a sea view.
Award-winning actor Tse Kwan-ho will be reprising his role as the brilliant but eccentric 20th century Cantonese opera composer, Kong Yu Kau.
The acclaimed stage play will be performed in a traditional Chinese matshed theatre for the first time, on the West Kowloon Waterfront Promenade.
The Spring-Time Experimental Theatre, which is putting on the show, is expecting another smash hit after 24 sold-out performances last year.
Producer-director Ko Chi-sum said he expected the new venue to bring freshness to the play. "We will have the best sea view in town," he said. "Visitors can come to enjoy both the play and our renowned Victoria Harbour view at the same time."
Audience members who arrive early will be treated to traditional herbal tea and other nostalgic cultural activities.
