About Us

Hong Kong Cantonese Opera Troupe (HKCOT) was founded in May 2023, established by Dr. Ina Ho Chan Un-chan with enthusiastic Cantonese opera dedicated personnel.  HKCOT owns a well-equipped and multi-function venue, which can be used for Cantonese opera rehearsals, practice, and seminars.

HKCOT is dedicated to inheriting and fostering the development of Cantonese opera, nurturing the outstanding young generation of Cantonese Opera with a number of performers and musicians.  HKCOT also aims at preserving, refining as well as staging the valuable traditional Cantonese Opera libretti meticulously and producing large-scale and high-quality Cantonese Opera performances.  HKCOT will join hands to conduct research and preservation projects upon Cantonese Opera-related topics jointly with “Ina Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre”, Hong Kong Metropolitan University, in order to enhance the awareness and understanding of the essence of this World Intangible Cultural Heritage among local, Greater Bay Area and overseas audiences.
