Ho Chi Minh City tea room invests in the cai luong play 'Ganh co song Han'

And, surprisingly, the investor was Mr. Tuan Dat - Director of WE Tea Room, Ho Chi Minh City - a place that specializes in music. This tea room is no longer a strange meeting place for music lovers in the city. However, the new owner of the tea room is very fond of Cai Luong and knows how to sing Cai Luong, so he boldly invested in Dai Viet stage of producer Hoang Song Viet to re-stage the play Ganh Co Song Han .

According to him, the reason is not only to restore the famous play but also to give young artists the opportunity to work. For example, in addition to famous names such as Minh Truong (as Tran Dinh), Ngoc Doi (as Oanh Kieu), Nha Thy (Dinh Thuy Dung), Bao Tri (Dinh Ma Du), the audience will also meet Bien Thuy, Khanh Du, Ly Trung Cuong, Trong Hieu, Pham Vu Thanh, Thanh Thuan, and Hoang Chuong.

According to producer Hoang Song Viet: "This play was written by playwright Thu An in his own special style, which is not to focus too much on the main couple, but to create opportunities for all other roles to have the chance to sing at least one vọng cổ verse, to have a role, so that the young generation can easily stand out."

The Han River Grass Carry once helped artist Hoai Thanh shine in the role of Tran Dinh, from which he continued to play the role of Le Minh in the play Nhuy Kieu Tuong Quan , becoming a famous cai luong actor. Artist Ngoc Huong in the role of Oanh Kieu with a warm voice and very good dancing with the horse Bach Long Phi.

Director Hoa Ha revealed: "This dance class is very difficult, requiring Ngoc Doi to make an effort with Phuong Viet dance troupe, and I was forced to introduce the name of the dancer playing Bach Long Phi at the opening, because this is an equally important role."

Meritorious Artist Minh Truong and Meritorious Artist Ngoc Doi will play the main roles in the play Ganh co song Han.

The Han River Grass Carry is a Vietnamese historical play depicting the spirit of patriotism against foreign invaders, both combative and sweet, touching, performed very well on stage and then recorded on Ho Chi Minh City Television, broadcast in black and white but the audience in the South was fascinated, watching it over and over again. Unfortunately, that film version was damaged, now online there are only a few dozen minutes of excerpts, so the WE tea room manager and manager Hoang Song Viet are dedicated to re-creating it so it won't be lost in the future. The play will be performed at 8pm on June 21 at Tran Huu Trang Theater (Ho Chi Minh City).
