The exchange and visit to the Traditional House of Tran Huu Trang Theater by young actors with Meritorious Teacher Manh Dung and Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau
Both of them, along with young actors, visited the Traditional House of Tran Huu Trang Theater, talking about the relics, documents, and archived images of the Southern Opera Troupe.
The young actors were fascinated when listening to the two artists talk about their roles, their artistic work over 50 years from reformed theater to drama and now participating in movies.
Meritorious teacher Manh Dung and Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau share their professional experiences with young actors.
Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau shared that the Southern Cai Luong troupe is a gathering place for many talented and enthusiastic composers, directors, painters, and actors. Contributing to the formation and development of the Southern Cai Luong art form are artists such as: Hoang Viet, Ngoc Bach, Tam Danh, Ba Du, Thanh Nha, Hoang Sa, Hoang Ba, Ngoc Thach, Phan Vu, Can Truong, Quoc Huong, Xuan Mai, Quang Hai...
It can be said that these names are the guiding principles for today's young generation to follow, doing well in training, performing and orienting public aesthetics through new works.
"I hope that through this exchange, the students will be inspired with passion, love their profession even more and try to study and improve their expertise well" - Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau emphasized.
Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau introduces to young actors her memorabilia displayed at the Traditional House of Tran Huu Trang Theater.
The young actors and two veteran artists reviewed the images and memorabilia of the troupe, of previous artists and teachers displayed at the Traditional House.
"The young actors have learned many valuable lessons through the heroic history of the Southern Opera Troupe introduced at the Traditional House, which has given us more material to pursue our career and practice ethics as our teachers have taught us," said actor Quoc Minh.
Meritorious teacher Manh Dung is always dedicated to passing on his profession to young actors.
From this meaningful exchange, excellent teacher Manh Dung confided that if the Traditional House is not built in time to preserve images, memorabilia and produce reports and portraits of the artists who have worked hard to build this cradle of art, it will be a big shortcoming in the work of propaganda and preserving the historical tradition of the development of Cai Luong theater.
At the same time, exchanges and thematic activities are organized for young actors and audiences to learn about and appreciate the great contributions of previous generations of artists. "The Traditional House of Tran Huu Trang Theater has been a very useful destination for cultural and artistic activities" - Meritorious Artist Thanh Dau said.
Meritorious teacher Manh Dung passionately tells stories about the Southern Opera Troupe
The Southern Reformed Opera Troupe was composed of members of the art troupe and the resistance against the French in the South, including: the Eastern Inter-Zone Art Troupe; the Ngu Yen Art Troupe; the "Green Rice, Golden Rice" Troupe of My Tho province; and the Cuu Long Giang Troupe of the Southwest.
At the end of 1954, the art troupes of the whole South gathered in the North according to the regulations of the Agreement on the cessation of hostilities in Indochina (signed on May 20, 1954), to attend the first National Art Congress, from this event, the Art Troupe of the South was established. The congress took place in Hanoi from the end of December 1954 to January 1955.
After the congress, the Southeast Art Troupe split into two troupes: the Southern People's Art Troupe and the Southern Army Art Troupe. From March to May 1955, it was joined by the Central Song and Dance Troupe, the Central Drama Troupe, and the Korean Army Art Troupe.
The two troupes of the Southern People's Artistic and the Southern Army returned to serve the regrouping of the Inter-Zone V in the provinces of Binh Dinh, Phu Yen , and Quang Ngai. To enhance the performance program, the troupe staged the play "The Fire is Burning" by author Phan Vu and performed it in Hai Phong.
At the end of 1955, the troupe performed for audiences in the capital and military units, including the officer school in Son Tay. During this time, the play "Blood on the Noc Nan Field" was put on stage. Currently, Tran Huu Trang Theater and a number of artists from the Southern Opera Troupe are making a documentary about the formation and development of this art troupe, in order to promote more widely the heroic history of soldiers on the cultural front.
