Nam Hwa Opera
Brief Introduction of the Company:
Founded in 1963 by avid fans of Teochew Opera, Nam Hwa Opera (NHO) has grown into one of Singapore’s most prominent and prolific Teochew Opera companies.
NHO mission is to preserve, develop, and promote traditional Teochew Opera as an important heritage of Singapore. NHO is also home to the Nam Hwa Teochew Music Ensemble and Yeo Khee Lim Teochew Culture Research Centre.
I am thankful to Nam Hwa Opera Teochew Company as they have given me a chance to experience how it is like to be in the working industry and preparing me to get ready for working industry as well, example would be they have put me as their stage manager for their 55th anniversary dinner which is an important role and event for the whole company, letting me attend their meeting so that I would be able to understand what is there to be prepared for, helping to take down minutes of meeting, having a feedback sharing session with the whole company after the event. Learning how to manage between tasks well, sharpening my adaptable skills, interpersonal skills.
