Chinese opera, Bangkok

backstage at a Chinese opera deep in Chinatown Bangkok.

 

The community is keeping this slowly disappearing art alive, troupes play regularly throughout the year on small stages and temple events and every night on major events, as here during the Vegetarian Festival.

 

Here is also a different shot of the same actor shot a few years ago in the same temple.
