Chee Hung entered the Canton
Chinese Opera School in 1991.
There, he was educated daily in Chinese opera arts - vocals,
acting, diction, martial arts, and theatrical arts.
Training was extremely strenuous, but he gained a profound
respect for Chinese opera and became an exceedingly skilled artist. Chee
Hung graduated from the Canton
Chinese Opera School in 1997, and was hired by the Canton
Red Bean Opera Group, which produced opera shows around the
world. There, he
specialized in playing aged men. At
only nineteen years old, Chee Hung was the youngest ever to specialize
in this area. He starred in
numerous shows, including Meeting
on the West River, Siu Ho
Chasing a Scholar Under the Moon, The Deportation of So Sam, Ma Fok Long
Sells Arrows, Song Gong Kills Yeem Po Sik, Chiur Chak Reports the Good
News, etc. In
