Hanoi is the cradle of several genres of traditional arts including Cheo or traditional opera. The Hanoi Cheo Theatre has, over the years, played an important role in preserving and promoting the art. The Theatre is celebrating its 60th founding anniversary this year.
On Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street, Hai Ba Trung District, Ha Noi Cheo Theatre is an interesting destination for people who love traditional folk art.
Cheo is a form of popular theatre in the Red River delta of Vietnam that has its roots in ancient village festivals. It consists of folk songs with pantomime, instrumental music and dances, combined with instructive or interpretive sketches dealing with stories from legends, poetry, history and daily life, plus acrobatic scenes and magic. Cheo tells tales of chiefs, heroes and lovely maidens and offers an eclectic mix of romance, tragedy and comedy.
Mini stages to bring audiences to the art
The theatre has created mini stages to bring audiences, especially foreigners, closer to the art. Visitors to Hanoi can get a ticket to see a Cheo play either at 15 Nguyen Dinh Chieu street or at Hoan Kiem Lake’s Ngoc Son temple. With an hour of songs and dances, the artists transport audiences back to Vietnam’s ancient legends.
Thi Mau - a popular character in Cheo
“Quan Am Thi Kinh” is one of Vietnam’s most popular Cheo plays, reflecting the Buddhist culture and Vietnamese tradition. The play has been performed many times. Each time it leaves a different impression on audience. For foreign audiences, who don’t know Vietnamese, the action and music of Cheo plays helps them learn about Vietnamese people’s lives. In recent years, Cheo stage, instruments and costumes have been reformed to make the Cheo art more assessable to domestic and foreign audiences.
