The Confidants

The most valuable thing in life is having a confidant—a friend who shares your heart and soul, standing by you through hardships. This deep bond is seen in the friendship between WU Zhao-qian, GU Zhen-guan, and Na Lan Xing-De. After many trials, how will their bond survive the test of human nature? Set against historical backdrop of the "Scandal of the Jiangnan Provincial Examination" and the poem "Jin Lu Qu" (Ballad of the Golden Threads), The Confidents fuses Peking Opera and Kunqu. A signature work of Maestro LI Bao-chun, it showcases his skill with complex characters. Co-starring WEN Yu-hang, with CHUNG Yiu-kwong and ZHU Shao-yu, the performance blends traditional opera with Western music, creating a rich, engaging experience.
