More excerpts from this opera company? That would be a GREAT TREAT.

Any excerpts from the other, equally good, company: ie. Zhangzhou Xiangju?

Yup, in this video tape, there're 3 excerpts from Zhangzhou troupe, and 2 from Xiamen troupe..

No wonder the recording is topnotch. Taiwan's Gezai Xi is no match when compared to those from China, which is simply fabulous. Any more China excerpts to share here??

Thanks

Actually, TW Gezi opera nowadays improved quite alot already. Alright sometimes the body gestures still not quite up to standard when compared to China ones, but than again, in terms of stage design and directing, some are really not too bad, especially those "experimental" kinds. I have some other excerpts from this videotape, maybe I' will put up in the near future. Thanks for your support!

There is no complete VCD for this show, sad to say. This is taken from a video tape produced by a Taiwanese TV station introducing China Hokkien opera, and this is just one of the excerpts featured.
