Chinese Opera Benefit

China Opera

Self-Help for the Elderly hosts the Chinese Opera Benefit once a year as a weekend event. It is a grand experience of Cantonese opera for everyone to enjoy. Cantonese opera is a traditional Chinese opera incorporating music, singing, acrobatics, martial arts, and acting. Traditional plots are based on Chinese historical stories, famous classics, and myths.

The Chinese Opera Benefit features the Duen Fung Ming Chinese Opera Troupe alongside other San Francisco local Chinese Opera groups. This event showcases professional performers delivering a captivating show that explores the complexities of love and hate, gentleness and boldness, as well as the themes of war and peace that are inherent in Chinese opera. The evening includes singing, dancing, pantomime, acrobatics, and clowning, ensuring a delightful experience for all attendees. It's a night of fun for every Cantonese opera enthusiast!
