Cantonese opera is a unique art form that blends Chinese legend, music and drama into an exciting performance style that’s bursting with symbolic meaning. It is highly respected on the international opera stage and was included as part of UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009.

This class opens your eyes and ears to this rich cultural experience by guiding you through the Hong Kong Heritage Museum’s extensive Cantonese Opera Heritage Hall and its numerous displays. Visitors will be able to view the elaborate costumes worn by performers and even attend a live operatic performance by a local troupe.
