The skit recreates the indomitable spirit of Vo Thi Sau.
The art program "THỊ" looks back at traditional values, listens to modern stories, and together spreads the image of Vietnamese women: intelligent, strong-willed, and full of pride.
The program is divided into three chapters: Chapter 1, "Night - Moonlight," portrays the image of Vietnamese women in ancient society: gentle, pure, yet strong-willed. It opens with two songs, "Silk Pillow" and "Floating Rice Cakes," based on poems by the female poet Ho Xuan Huong. The highlight of this chapter is an excerpt from the Cai Luong (Vietnamese traditional opera) play "The Soul of a Virtuous Woman" (based on Nguyen Du's story "The Story of the Girl from Nam Xuong"); the chapter concludes with the song "Ephemeral Shadow," lamenting the unfortunate fates bound by the strict prejudices of feudal society.
Chapter II, titled "Dawn and the Sun," opens with a radiant space of patriotism and the aspiration for life. Vietnamese women emerge in this new chapter of history, not only as keepers of the flame in the family, but also as courageous fighters, daughters who dedicate themselves to freedom and revolutionary ideals. From heroic revolutionary songs and short plays recreating the indomitable spirit of Vo Thi Sau, to the choral performance of "Gratitude to Vo Thi Sau," the entire audience was moved and filled with pride in the courage and patriotism of Vietnamese women. Furthermore, the LED screen on the stage displayed examples of successful women in various fields both domestically and internationally.
Chapter III, "A Mother's Dream," featured meaningful song and dance performances and theatrical scenes depicting the journey of mothers giving birth, raising their children, and silently supporting their dreams as they soar. The program concluded with a heartfelt tribute from all participating students, who respectfully invited their mothers and loved ones onto the stage to present them with bouquets of flowers, warm hugs, and a mix of smiles and tears of happiness.
Ms. Tran Thi Ngoc, from Can Tho , mother of student Pham Tran Hong Nhung, shared: “The program was excellent and very meaningful, moving me and many viewers, making us prouder of Vietnamese women. I am also very happy that my daughter participated and contributed to the program. I hope that my children will not only make the program great but also study well and will be strong and successful when they enter life.”
Pham Quoc Khai, a student from the Multimedia Communication Class 01 - Course 10, said: “This art program is to conclude the “Event Organization” course, creating a foundation for students to practice the knowledge they have learned. More than 70% of the participants are students, and we invited some senior students to collaborate, such as MCs, singers, and musicians, to make the program more perfect. The funding came from student contributions and additional sponsorships. We chose the theme “THE MARKET” because of our love and respect for women and mothers, and we want to use the program to awaken pride, appreciation, and raise awareness of gender equality.”
