This 200 square metre Exhibition Room of the Nguyễn Hiển Dĩnh Tuồng Theatre displays props, photographs and other memorabilia relating to the art of tuồng, both in Đà Nẵng and elsewhere in Việt Nam. The exhibition compares the three regions of the country, highlighting differences in the ancient characters. Pride of place is given to a collection of 120 different masks and make-up styles for classical opera characters spanning the past two centuries, gathered by tuồng director Vĩnh Huế during the course of 20 years’ research in tuồng theatres throughout the country. Other artefacts on view include a miniature stage and a display of costumes and props. Books, screenplays, programmes and other artefacts, including many personal possessions of famous tuồng artists Nguyễn Hiển Dĩnh and Tống Phước Phổ, are also presented along with some 15 videotapes of ancient classical opera plays.
