薛丁山与樊梨花 by 陈楚蕙,曾珊凤 and 陈楚蕙,陈碧霞
Spent almost 4 hours this afternoon watching Part 1 and Part 2 of the black and white Teochew opera movies 薛丁山与樊梨花 by 陈楚蕙 and 曾珊凤. I like the story very much. I had watched 陈楚蕙 performed 薛丁山与樊梨花 in Singapore many years ago. 陈碧霞 played the role as 樊梨花. I prefer 陈楚蕙's stage performance because she did all the stunts personally. Here are some of the photos taken when 楚蕙 and 碧霞 performed 薛丁山与樊梨花 in Singapore.
Hi, QL here. Actually, i prefer the movie one by chen chu hui and zeng shan feng because th stag play was more long-winded. Nevertheless, the stunts by chen chu hui were great. Last time they were allowed to have all those fire stunts but i think it has been prohibited due to safety precaution. It was a pity that they recorded this show instead of 田堅走國(The emperor who fled his country). chen chu hui got 4 wives and zhang li jin was his younger brother who tried to take over his position.
ReplyDeleteThe 烈火阵 was great. Words cannot describe how Chor Hwee performed the stunts. That was the segment that put an end to Part 1 performance.
