It is choreographed and directed by Artistic Director Yuri NG and features veteran musical talents Rick LAU and Anna LO, the core creative team behind the sell-out cabaret shows <em>LauZone<\/em> and <em>Tri Ka Tsai.

Ergao is well-known for his quirky and humorous choreographic style. The performance consists of familiar landscapes and images of Guangdong. <em>Kung Hei Fat Choy<\/em> premiered in Switzerland in 2019 and was also performed at the Guangdong Times Museum.
