Dama’s production September Tale pays tribute to the world-acclaimed Chinese songbird of the 1970s-1980s – the legendary Teresa Teng, who despite her early demise remains truly an international icon. Teng’s fame extended across the boundaries of Asia – China, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and others – to the Western world. In commemorating the tenth anniversary of Teng’s passing, the award-winning team of Dama Orchestra and soprano Tan Soo Suan will render songs popularized by the late superstar.
