The veteran cadre of the opera actors from the Cantonese Opera Institute presented five classic episodes of the traditional Cantonese Opera highlights “Zhong Kui Shang Lu”, "Di Nvhua Xiang Yao”, "Tou Jiang”, "Huo Zhuo Zhang Sanlang”, "Da Nao Shizi Lou”, featuring four traditional opera characters—Sheng, Dan, Jing, Chou, and including the civil and martial episodes and the techniques of “Chang Nian Zuo Da”. The episode “Tou Jiang” performed by the first-rate actor Zeng Xiaomin conveyed sensitive emotions and variegated facial expressions. With the episode unfolding, the actor threw up the two-meter long water sleeves to express the character’s anger, presenting the performing technique of throwing up sleeves to the audience. In the episode of “Da Nao Shizilou”, Wu Song fought with Xi Menqing, standing up on the four legs of the upside-down desk, and sometimes cross-legged on them, wining the applause from the audience with his stunts.

In the middle session of the opera evening, members of SYSU Lingnan Opera Association threw up water sleeves and playing the martial arts on the stage, sparking bursts of applause from the audience.
