【追光續夢 vol 01 皇都戲院】

皇都戲院是香港碩果僅存的舊式大戲院,於2017年獲評為一級建築物,但從網上搜集到的有關資料都是有關皇都戲院大廈將被清拆。

然而,現在從車水馬龍的街道踏入曾經印證昔日娛樂事業風華年代的建築,只能夠感受到荒廢,隨著長年累月的日久失修,只能成為一代港人的集體回憶。

在皇都戲院𥚃仍在營業的商户寥寥可數,而當中最具標誌性的,非歐陽昌經營的「京華招牌」莫屬。

色彩斑斕的發光燈箱為死寂的皇都戲院添了一絲生氣,身白衣唐裝的歐陽昌選擇留守在這寸地方。他十分健談,大家有興致不妨到來欣賞已失傳的真體字。

讓首夢者為皇都戲院追光續夢。

【Light Chaser Dream Catcher vol 01 State Theatre】

The State Theatre, Hong Kong’s only surviving old-style grand theatre, was awarded with a Grade I listing in 2017, but recently, there has been internet speculation that the State Theatre will be demolished very soon.

However, when you step in from the busy streets, you can feel the history that this great building once held. Echoes of the previous stories and collective memories of entertainment that this place once had.

There are still a few merchants that reside in the State Theatre, and the most iconic of them are the rare King Wah sign boards run by Auyeung Cheong.

These colorful light boxes within the quiet State Theatre adds a touch of vitality. Dressed in a traditional white shirt, Auyeung Cheong chose to stay to keep this place alive. He is very talkative, so those who are interested may come to appreciate the lost characters and history of this place.

The Dream Guardians wants to catch the dream of the State Theatre.
