The interesting interaction and humorous performance make the audience happy. The audience laughed constantly.

The leader of the group, Mak Wing-ho, is a native of Hong Kong. He came to Guangzhou in 2002 to study in the Chinese Department of Jinan University and began to try experimental creations.

He also encouraged all theater youths to maintain their creative enthusiasm and adhere to their theater ideals. .
