Sell-out success of Cantonese musical could inspire more large-scale productions of this kind in the city, despite storage and cost challenges.
The strong demand for the sold-out Cantonese musical The Impossible Trial suggests that Hong Kong could see more shows of this kind in the future, according to one of its presenters, with its popularity casting a spotlight on all aspects of the production, including its contemporary Chinese aesthetics.
Producing more large-scale, recurring theatrical productions also raises the question of how to store stage sets in a city where space is at a premium.
