Monkey King 07 Jamie Guan


Here we have a basket of costumes that kids can don to look like Monkey King, or more specifically like Jamie Guan, than man in the video. Jamie is an expert Peking Opera performer who demonstrates some of the ins and outs of performing as Monkey King in a short video. He actually visited the museum during our Asian Culture Fest in late April and put on several performances providing a longer demonstration of playing Monkey King in Chinese Opera.
