韭菜芭城隍庙今年庆祝城隍诞，一连上演131天酬神大戏，创下新加坡纪录大全连演酬神戏最多天数纪录。
16个国内外剧团参与
在这次于昨晚开锣演出的131天酬神大戏中，除了6月20日（农历五月廿八日）城隍爷圣诞那场戏是由城隍庙自行出资上演之外，其余130天都是由信众赞助，总共筹集约50万元，聘请16个国内外剧团演出。
对于今年的酬神戏，非但不受经济低迷影响，反而一举打破了多年来演酬神戏天数纪录，城隍庙的总务陈添来受访时说：“这一方面是因为今年农历闰五月，能有多一个月的时间演出，另一方面也是答谢神恩信众热烈支持所致。”
韭菜芭城隍庙每年都从农历三月十五日开始，根据信众的赞助多寡，一连多日聘请戏班上演酬神戏。不过，酬神戏最迟必需在进入农历七月前一天，停止演出。
今年农历闰五月，城隍爷“清溪显佑伯主”，今年有两天可庆祝寿辰。陈添来说：“闰五月要隔12年才会有一次，非常难得，而为了表示虔诚，酬神戏的天数一定要比往年多。演出天数‘131’也谐音‘一生一’，是一个好兆头。”
他也透露，韭菜芭城隍庙已经向新加坡纪录大全申请演酬神戏最多天数纪录，纪录大全负责人会在酬神戏演出的最后一天，也即8月18日（农历六月廿八日）晚上，在台上将纪录证书发给城隍庙。
韭菜芭城隍庙从1992年开始，每年举办连续多日的酬神戏，而在过去17年中，有6年演出的酬神戏在100天以上，其中以1998年演出的天数最多，总共109天。当年，恰巧也是闰五月。
从事物流业商人林水金（52岁），今年独自出资10万元赞助15场由台湾明华园戏剧团演出的歌仔戏。
林水金也是韭菜芭城隍庙的信托人兼名誉主席。他说：“我在1992年开创物流公司前，曾来城隍庙求签，结果求到好签，办了公司，一切果然很顺利，今年的酬神戏又刚好做得很大，所以就捐得比往年来得多，算是还愿。”
社会发展、青年及体育部政务部长符喜泉，昨晚应邀主持敲锣开演仪式。首晚由中国福建漳州芗剧团呈献《梁山伯与祝英台》，全场600多个座位，座无虚席，部分戏迷甚至站在过道旁看戏。
The first performance troup is from 中國福建漳州薌劇團.
I had watched 'liang sanbo and zhu yingtai', 'bao ying ji', 'lu meng zhen', 'guo wenying', 'yuan yang xiang bao' and ' lee san siang'. I had actually watched lee san siang on year 2006 but mum said that lee san siang was a rather sad show and suggested us to watch. upon watching, i realised that i had watched the same performance before but cannot remember when i watched the performance.

The first performance troup is from 中國福建漳州薌劇團.
I had watched 'liang sanbo and zhu yingtai', 'bao ying ji', 'lu meng zhen', 'guo wenying', 'yuan yang xiang bao' and ' lee san siang'. I had actually watched lee san siang on year 2006 but mum said that lee san siang was a rather sad show and suggested us to watch. upon watching, i realised that i had watched the same performance before but cannot remember when i watched the performance.
That is also the same reason i decided to blog about my opera watching on my blog again so that i get to know what troupe i had get to know from watching opera here.
My favourite performance by this china is the one on bao ying ji - story of protecting a baby --
The story was about a woman whose son was dying. Before dying, he informed his mum to get care of his future wife whom was pregnant. The mum went to find the woman. after giving birth, the woman realised that the mum son was not her own husband. Her husband was supposed to be killed and the mum's son was a good friend of her husband. The woman tried to hide the truth as she was very thankful of the mum whom saved her. In the past, woman cannot be pregant without a husband or the woman will need to be drowned. The woman real husband managed to find his wife.The story ended happily with the woman and her husband acknowleding the mum as their foster mother.
Second performance troup was from 台灣小飛霞(聯合新加坡福建筱麒麟劇團).
I heard from mum that 小飛霞 and 小龍女 are both godchildren of the singapore troup 筱麒麟劇團. that is the reason why both taiwanese returned to singapore yearly for performance too. i am amazed that the 筱麒麟劇團 boss -- a pair of elderly couple - husband already in his 80s and wife in her 60s are still performing. In fact, the wife whom is most commonly known as 'xiao jing kee' still have a powerful singing voice despite her old age. this is admirable in the opera industry. The husband Lau Hor Xin only perfomed a small role due to his age but he had a major role in holding the whole troupe to survive in singapore.

'xiao jing kee already in her 60s
Lau Hor Xin already in his early 80s
Combined performance with their godchildren had such a great effect that the troupe received many generous donation for their wonderful performance. Mum counted at least $500 plus for one night performance. A blogger had set a website for this troupe - http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/w3688sg-opera/article?mid=7&sc=1#61.
I am not too sure what performance i had watched already as i cannot find the performance schedule online. I realised one thing about the net - there are many ppl whom know about this performance at our local temple but almost all sites i managed to find are from our fellow singaporeans or taiwanese.
小飛霞
小瓏女
Third performance troup is from 台灣台北宏聲歌劇團 .
Dad boss had 赞助 the day performance on the first day on performanc - du wen long. My parents and i get to sit right at the first row for the performance. There was quite a small drama over sitting issue before we got to sit in the front rows.
I really love the troupe xiao sheng - lan yajun. She is very good as xiao sheng. At crying show, i can see her tears really dropping. You can never see this from the behind rows and so that is why i thought yajun was real good. She is quite beautiful despite her thick makeup with deep dimples on both side of her face.
xiao sheng - lan yajun 藍雅君
Actually i love all the xiao sheng role in most opera troupes. it is not easy to be cast as xiao sheng where u need to have deep voice, wear thick shoes and behave like a real man. the last time i had any real 'feel' for xiao sheng is the troup from the china troupe. Btw, the xiao sheng 'lan yalan' in yang li hua troupe is also very handsome as her role as a guy.
I only watched the first day of their performance on 21 june, 4 and 5 of july. i liked yesterday performance, 错爱。The story involved love between human and foxes. The story of coures ended as expected as moral and demons can never be together. What i loved abt this performance is the 'clown' roles are real funny, it lighthen the whole atmosphere and made the whole story seem more interesting. Yesterday, the actors came down the stage selling buns for chartiy. It was a pity that my SE phone is unable to take good photos at night or i would had take some photos of yajun. Yajun had went right to the end of the audience row to ask them to donate by selling them buns. But one thing abt taiwanese performance is the words they used in hokkein can be quite vulgar. anyway hokkein words can be quite vulgar at times.yesterday donation by selling buns got the temple $1726 for charity.
the last performance troupe is from 台灣明華園天字團. Mum and i had already plan to watch on fridays and sats where at most we will only get to watch for two more weeks.
