Nam Hwa Opera: A Classic Double Bill
南华潮剧社经典重现:《姐妹易嫁》、《串戏定亲》

Nam Hwa Opera Annual Production: A Double Bill of Love, Drama, and Tradition

This year, Nam Hwa Teochew Opera proudly presents a captivating double bill of classic Teochew operas, Swopping the Bride and Love Proposal Through Drama—two heartwarming tales of love, mistaken identities, and the bonds that bring people together.

Swopping the Bride

Zhang Youwang’s elder daughter Suhua was betrothed to Mao Ji since young. Mao Ji came out tops in the imperial examination, but he pretended to have failed in order to test his fiancée Suhua. The materialistic Suhua despised his poverty and refused to tie the knot with him, no matter how hard younger sister Sumei tried to talk her out. In view that Mao Ji was an honest and talented man, Sumei agreed to her father’s proposal to take the place of Suhua and marry Mao Ji instead. Only when Sumei was about to enter the bridal sedan, everyone then came to realize that Mao Ji had become the top scholar. Suhua fell into utter regret.

Love Proposal Through Drama

Huang Liangfeng was putting up an opera performance with Guihua, to entertain his mother during the Dragon Boat Festival. Guihua had been fond of Liangfeng for his honesty. Liangfeng admired the virtues of Guihua as well, but he refrained from expressing himself for fear that Guihua would suffer with him due to his impoverished background. Both of them ended up embedding their true feelings into the drama of their performance. With Liangfeng’s mother mediating as the go-between, the couple finally got together.
