陈嘉昊透过《马照跑‧舞照跳》分享不复存在的香港故事

很多温哥华居民并不知道某些邻居正努力尝试保留富有想像力的香港文化。这个曾经自由的港口城市孕育出以粤语为基础的当代媒体、艺术和娱乐产业。然而,自从香港在1997年回归中国以来,便一直经历普通话殖民化,近年的打压更日益严重,迫使数以百万计的民众上街抗议。这导致全国人民代表大会在2020年通过严苛的《香港国安法》,结束了承诺维持至2047年的高度自治。这令到香港人心灰意冷,更激怒了加拿大举国上下的香港侨民。

温哥华演员、导演兼剧作家Barbara Pollard克服难关实现无尽戏剧生涯

银发族女演员或会面对演出机会匮乏的问题,但部份却成功突破年龄界限,例如是英国的玛吉·史密斯(Maggie Smith)、朱迪·丹奇(Judy Dench)和海伦·米兰(Helen Mirren)。美国方面,洁西卡·坦迪(Jessica Tandy)凭着于《Driving Miss Daisy》的演出,以80岁高龄成为奥斯卡最佳女主角奖最年长的得奖者。而在温哥华,魅力四射的Barbara Pollard也在逆流而上。
