PAPER CRANE


From the duo that brought you the multi-award winning Broken Bridges 
comes another riveting tale of love, rivalry, hope and dreams...

PAPER CRANE  尾聲
The Rise and Fall of a Musical Star
一個戲曲伶人之起落沉浮





Armed with just a dream, Ah Kit ventures to join a Cantonese Opera troupe. Through an unfortunate turn of events, he manages to draw the wrath of the current superstar incumbent, Fui Koh, and is hired as a lowly stagehand instead. As he earns his place in the troupe, he befriends another apprentice, Siu Ngau, and catches the attention of not only the Manager’s daughter, Fei Mui, but also the Manager himself who sees Ah Kit’s potential.

As love blossoms between Fei Mui and Ah Kit, the friction between the aspiring star and Fui Koh increases. An inevitable showdown follows. To what lengths will each go to protect what they hold to their hearts so dearly?

The brand new musical directed by Joe Hasham OAM and produced by Dato’ Faridah Merican stars an amazing line up of award-winning talents. With a 24-strong cast plus a 7-piece live band performing 15 original Broadway-style numbers, Paper Crane is set to be another irresistable musical treat!

Paper Crane is a production by The Actors Studio Seni Teater Rakyat.

(Performed in Cantonese & English. Scene by scene descriptions in English will be provided)
