CANTONESE OPERA PAYS TRIBUTE TO TALE OF TWO CITIES 粵劇連繫港穗兩地譜寫雙城故事 A radiant jewel of Chinese culture, Cantonese opera is a popular form of entertainment in Hong Kong and Guangzhou. After World War II, performers from Guangzhou went to Hong Kong to develop their skills, leading to the establishment of the Chinese Artists Association of Hong Kong, the wave of experience exchange in the 1970s and enrichment of the "Kwangtung grand theatre play". A photo exhibition showing the close historic ties between the two cities, jointly organised by the Hong Kong Chronicles Institute and the Guangdong Provincial Chronicles Office and other institutions, opened simultaneously on December 13, 2021. An online version will be available when the physical show ends on March 13, 2022. 粵劇是廣東傳統文化的瑰寶，也是許多港穗市民的至愛。戰後廣州人才帶同技術和經驗到港發展，促使香港八和會館成立，一同宏揚傳統粵劇藝術。1979年香港紅伶首次到穗交流演出，其後廣東粵劇院組織粵劇交流團赴港演出，兩地名伶交流切磋，為香港粵劇界注入生命力，豐富了廣東「大戲」多元的表演風格。香港地方誌中心正聯同廣東省地方誌辦公室等聯合主辦「『同舟共濟志同道合』港穗雙城圖片展覽」，圖片將於實體展覽2022年3月13日完成後上載至香港地方誌中心網頁。 Cantonese opera artist Hung Sin Nui’s interest in the art was nurtured during her childhood in Guangzhou.
