GIS MOBILE THEATRE
******
A HAPPY WAGON
THE MOBILE STREET THEATRE OF THE GOVERNMENT INFORMATION SERVICES IS NO STRANGER TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC, ESPECIALLY TO THOSE LIVING IN PUBLIC HOUSING ESTATES.
SINCE 1974 THE MOBILE THEATRE HAS BEEN ROVING THE STREETS OF HONG KONG BRINGING ENTERTAINMENT AND INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC, AS WELL AS EDUCATING THEM ON THEIR CIVIC RESPONSIBILITIES. DURING ITS TOUR, IT HAS STAGED SOME 850 SHOWS,
ALSO KNOWN AS THE HAPPY WAGON+ IN CHINESE, THE STREET THEATRE IS A LORRY WHICH CAN BE CONVERTED INTO AN INSTANT STAGE. IT IS FITTED WITH LIGHTING, A PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM AND A PORTABLE GENERATOR TO SUPPLY ITS OWN ELECTRICITY WHEN REQUIRED.
WHILE MOST PEOPLE ARE ENJOYING THEIR WEEKENDS, SUNDAYS, PUBLIC HOLIDAYS OR RELAXING AT HOME AFTER A HARD DAY'S WORK, THE MOBILE STREET THEATRE TEAM GEARS FOR WORK, BRINGING ENTERTAINMENT TO THE PUBLIC AND, ABOVE ALL, PUTTING ACROSS GOVERNMENT EDUCATIONAL MESSAGES.
+IT IS MOST ENCOURAGING TO SEE THE GOOD RESPONSE FROM THE PUBLIC JUDGING FROM THE LARGE CROWD OF PEOPLE THAT IS ATTRACTED TO OUR SHOWS,✦ A G.I.S. SPOKESMAN SAID TODAY.
+BECAUSE OF ITS POPULARITY, THE STREET THEATRE IS HEAVILY COMMITTED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO VARIOUS GOVERNMENT CAMPAIGNS SUCH AS BEAT CRIME, ROAD SAFETY, CLEAN BEACH, CLEAN HONG KONG, ANTI-NARCOTICS, FIRE PREVENTION AS WELL AS POLICE AND PRISONS STAFF RECRUITMENT DRIVE,+ THE SPOKESMAN ADDED.
IN JUNE THIS YEAR, AN OFFSHOOT OF THE MOBILE STREET THEATRE THE PUPPET THEATRE -- WAS INTRODUCED AS ANOTHER NEW MEDIUM OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT AND THE PUBLIC.
