Led by Artistic Director Dominic Cheung, Chung Ying strives to enhance its adventurous core programme of live theatre with quality drama education and outreach programmes. This work has been supported by exciting collaborative relationships with venues including Yuen Long Theatre (2009 - 2012) and Kwai Tsing Theatre (2008 - present).
