Chèo is a traditional form of Vietnamese folk theater that combines music, dance, and acting. Originating from the northern regions of Vietnam, it often features humorous and satirical stories that reflect everyday life and social issues. Performances are typically held outdoors during festivals and celebrations, making it accessible to a wide audience. The music in chèo is characterized by its use of traditional instruments, such as the đàn nhị (two-stringed fiddle) and trống (drums). The actors wear colorful costumes and use exaggerated gestures to convey emotions and narratives, making it an engaging experience for viewers of all ages.
