This genre-defying spectacle transforms tradition into an unforgettable confrontation of music, choreography and storytelling. Witness where legend and humour collide in a vibrant, epic encounter!

About Yat Po Singers

Yat Po Singers, a pioneering Hong Kong troupe, presents a non-verbal a cappella spectacle in which powerful figures exchange weapons for rhythmic beats and Sheng melodies. The Sheng is a traditional Chinese instrument, and its sounds weave through vocal artistry and body percussion as leaders battle through legendary tales and epic rivalries. Using only the human voice, Sheng sounds and movement, this genre-defying show blends music, choreography and storytelling into a vivid, humorous confrontation of tradition and spectacle.

Why see this show?

A show that needs no shared language to land — pure voice, movement and the ancient sound of the Sheng create something genuinely surprising. Suitable for all ages, it is one of those Fringe experiences that feels unlike anything else on the programme.
