Chinese Teochew Opera artist getting ready for his performance backstage. Artists in Singapore often work in makeshift tents that are filled with personal and professional equipment. These unseen performances are as important as those that the audience see on stage. As with all performing arts, it is the long hours of training and arduous preparation that contributes to the success of the show.
