Speaker: Professor Martin Lau, Dean of the School of Chinese Opera, HKAPA
戲曲充份表現劇場的整體藝術，無論在唱、做、人物塑造、功架、排場與武打表演上皆要求千錘百煉的技巧，因此享有舞台藝術的獨特地位，乃中華文化重要一環。來到21世紀，戲曲表演藝術家面對全新的挑戰。戲曲學院院長劉國瑛教授將透過是次講座，分享如何透過創新的教學方法，為新一代的粵劇從業員提供實踐和綜合的全面性訓練。
Chinese opera is recognised as a unique and supreme example of total theatre, requiring the most profound refinement of skills in singing, acting, characterisation, movement, choreography and acrobatics. This art form constitutes a valuable part of Chinese culture. In this talk, Professor Martin Lau, Dean of the School of Chinese Opera shares how the School adopts an innovative teaching and learning approach to equip young talents with necessary knowledge and skills to navigate the challenges of the 21st century.
