In a small theater in Maoming city in South China's Guangdong province, Cantonese Opera echoes through the air, the rhythmic beat of drums, the melodic instruments and the soaring voices of performers filling the atmosphere with life and energy. This was the world Li Junsheng was born into.
Li's parents were both professional Cantonese Opera actors, and he grew up immersed in the art form. The stage was not a distant dream — it was part of his everyday life.
