Correction: the Sunbeam Theatre's final night is tonight (March 3rd). The full house remark holds though.
Also, sharing a couple more pics: one from earlier today (yes, the final performances at the venue were an opera about Deng Xiaoping 😬); the other from last night.

Many of the headlines you will see will name Benny Tai and Joshua Wong. But there are 43 others who have been jailed, including a 68 yr-old socialist known as Long Hair and a 67 yr-old former journalist known affectionately as Auntie Mo. Yet others are unfamiliar to non-Hongongers.
Many family members, whose loved ones have been detained since February 2021, learned on Tuesday when they would next see them in person.
