2023 marks the 35th anniversary of the Kunqu Society. To celebrate its long-term dedication to the study, preservation, and promotion of Kunqu, an elegant form of traditional Chinese theatre, the Kunqu Society presents a live performance of two plays, featuring its members who have been studying with teachers at its Kunqu Workshop over the years, in costume and make-up. The two plays present a contrast in characters and dramatic conflicts that showcase the teaching and passing on of the Kunqu art in New York/America. The performers include Yi Zhou and Matthew Bloch in the play Flirting with the Brother-in-Law and Carrie Mo and Dongshin Chang in Encounter at the Pavilion. Live orchestra. Live performance with online viewing options. Subtitles in English with bi-lingual hosts. Free admission.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
