troupe close

saw on papers that a teochew troupe is closing next year.
its so sad.
although the troupe is doing well, but lack of audience is the reason they gave for closing.

anyway, the closure of a troupe brings another closing chapter of sg history.

its sad to see such culture disappearing from us.
Previously, there are no tv thus youngsters will go watch street opera.
Nowadays, youngsters will prefer to watch the monitor.

Imagine... 20 yrs later... GCB got no more troupes performing...
But i can imagine XJ's troupe starring the stage for 70days! Heheee....
