Donald Trump is taking the stage in a 'yuge' way in Hong Kong. 'Trump on Show' is the new Cantonese Opera that opened this past Friday, according to the BBC.
Cantonese opera is a 500-year-old art form originating in southern China.
"We've been complaining about Trump," says Playwright Li Kui-Ming. "After Trump became the U.S. president, we were exhausted. We had to pay attention to U.S. news every day. That's why I think we are entitled to write a Cantonese opera about Trump."
Loong Koon-tin plays Trump in this outrageous production.
Check out a video preview, and interview with Koon-tin and Kui-Ming, below!
The show plays at Sunbeam Theatre in Hong Kong through April 15. For more information, visit http://sunbeamtheatre.com.
