Master mentor hones Macao's theatrical edge
*******************************************

     To encourage the interaction and development of a drama culture between Hong Kong and Macao, Hong Kong drama director Fredric Mao extended his theatre-mentoring project to Macao.

     With his guidance, two young Macao directors and 11 artists developed and staged the world's first Chinese version of "Fanshen", the dramatic adaptation of the real account of a 1945 uprising in a small village in Shanxi province.

     Mao and his proteges describe the experience in a video and story that appear on news.gov.hk today (May 6).
