| description | This study attempts to empirically investigate Macao residents’ perception and enjoyment of their
traditional performing arts - Cantonese opera. By examining the relationship between the experiential
attributes and intrinsic artistic components of Cantonese opera, this study found that the experiential
attributes and intrinsic craftsmanship were significantly correlate and influence on the residents’
enjoyment of their traditional performing arts. While the constructs of “identity connection” and “leisure
experiential benefits” are found to have significant prediction towards the intrinsic craftsmanship and
residents’ enjoyment of Cantonese opera, the intrinsic craftsmanship is the strongest latent variable to
predict residents’ enjoyment. Moreover, the statistical results reveal that Macao residents’ consumption
experience of Cantonese opera vary with their socio-demographic characteristics, particularly the
residents’ birthplace and age. This study empirically supports that the experiential attributes associated
with tangible cultural heritage can apply to intangible cultural heritage and influence its attractiveness.
Some practical and theoretical implications are suggested. |
