Reimaging Chinese classics in theater
A theatre adaptation of the Chinese classic, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, makes its way to the Sai Wan Ho Civic Centre this March. Named Taming the Dragon, the bilingual adaptation will be performed in English and accompanied by surtitles. Vicki Ooi, the artistic director of the show and of Absolutely Fabulous Theatre Connection, shared her experience of drafting the adapted tale and the importance of literature on stage.
