Bangkok, Feb 5 (EFE/EPA).- Chinese Opera performers in Bangkok are gearing up for upcoming Lunar New Year celebrations. The Sai Yong Hong opera troupe is one of the few remaining troupes in Thailand. The traditional Chinese Opera has been a part of Thai culture for centuries, with performances taking place on various occasions in the Thai-Chinese community. The Chinese Opera is a spectacle combining song, dance, acting, poetry and martial arts. Usually hired by local Chinese shrines to perform in Bangkok’s Chinatown during the festivals, the performers, most of them descendants of ethnic Teochew Chinese, wear colorful costumes and elaborate make-up to bring mythical stories to life.
