Sing Along with Lok Lok

One Table Two Chairs Charitable Foundation

“What do you want for dinner tonight?” “Chicken wings, sweet potatoes and ice cream!”
Do you know everyday dialogue can turn into a song?

The Cantonese dialect is fantastic! With so many possibilities between high and low tones, mellifluous phrases characterise the narrative style of naamyam’s intangible cultural heritage. Preparing her homework assignment, Lok Lok discovers the lively sounds and unique geniality of this local musical genre passed on from Grandpa to Mother and to her!

Cantonese opera veteran Yuen Siu-fai appears for the first time in children’s theatre! With music combining East and West by Yin Ng and down-to-earth lyrics by Chan Yiu-sum (Aamuk), this show features a crossover ensemble of guitar, huqin and guzheng. Let’s all embark on this naamyam journey with Musette Tsang as she tells marvellous stories punctuated by a woodblock!

Naamyam
Naamyam is a form of Cantonese narrative singing. From the late Qing dynasty to the 1960s, you could hear naamyam in public places around Hong Kong and Guangzhou sung by visually impaired singers. It was even considered popular music at the time, broadcast daily on radio!

Sing Your Story with Naamyam Parent-child Workshop

Naamyam has often been considered drawn-out and melancholy, but it can be trendy and chill too! Professional artists guide parents and children to learn about naamyam, even setting new lyrics as they create their own stories together!
