********************************************************
Local arts group Trinity Theatre will perform their highly acclaimed music theatre "Sing-a-long" for the fourth time in June.
"Sing-a-long" covers Canto-pop songs from the 1980s up to today. It was an instant hit when it premiered in 2008 and was adapted into a radio play. In the forthcoming performances, it will be reprised on a bigger stage with brand new stage and costume designs and three guest artists. Audiences can sing along and walk down memory lane together with the performers.
Our most significant memories are often associated with music or song, like the background music in a cinematic setting. The lyrics that we know by heart document how we lived - the times, the days, who we loved and how we felt.
The production is written and directed by Allen Ma, with live music by Vince Lui and Sebastian Poon@Sugar Club. Apart from creators and performers Allen Ma, Stephan Tsui and Stanley Tam, the cast also includes guest performers Kandy Wong@Sugar Club, Andes Yue and Crystal Cheung@hotcha.
One of the programmes in the "Re-run Run Shows" series presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, "Sing-a-long" will be performed in Cantonese at 7.45pm on June 8 and 9 (Friday and Saturday) at the Auditorium, Kwai Tsing Theatre, and at 7.45pm on June 15 and 16 (Friday and Saturday) at the Auditorium, Yuen Long Theatre.
