The artists from nearly 20 theatres and traditional art troupes of the country are presenting extracts from popular cheo (popular opera) and tuong (classical opera) performances.
"The national competition aims to provide young actors a chance to meet, exchange and nurture their passion for traditional art genres," Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Vuong Duy Bien said. "It also encourages and promotes the young artists to show creativity in art through their roles. We hope to find more talent at the competition."
The competition is being co-held by Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s Performing Art Department, Vietnam Stage Artists Association and People’s Committee of Thanh Hoa from August 5 to 14.
