Get more sunshine on your face in June by enjoying a romantic musical comedy. The June Bride, adapted from the work with the same name, will put audiences in Guangzhou in stitches on June 15.
The June Bride is one of the eight comedies created by Eileen Chang, a Chinese writer noted for fiction writing that deals with the tensions between men and women in love.
It talks about the excitement, anxiety and confusion of a bride-to-be who gets the cold shoulder from her fiancee but is wooed by two other men at the same time. Chiu Woon, a top musical actress from Hong Kong, will play the bride.
The June Bride incorporates more than 30 Chinese hit songs in the 1980s and 1990s to help refresh the original material, created in 1960. The hit songs will hopefully strike a chord with the audience.
8 pm, June 15. Concert Hall, Xinghai Concert Hall, 33 Qingbo Lu, Ersha Island, Yuexiu district, Guangzhou. 020-8735-2222.
