Previously, Cat Phuong participated in a series of plays at Truong Hung Minh (Minh Nhi) stage, such as Touching it is burning your hand, Murder at the Moonless Night, Blood Silk; now she is preparing for the show Night of Laughter 4 on the night of December 16. In fact, this is the opening product for a series of bold upcoming projects. A strong Cat Phuong has returned, and the stage "race" is thorny but always attractive to her.
Cat Phuong confided: "No matter what kind of movie I make, I'm still a person of the stage, the stage blood still flows in me."
Cat Phuong is a meticulous person, so when she returned to Trong Dong after two years of the pandemic, she started to renovate drastically. She said: "Nowadays, the audience no longer accepts to sit on those makeshift chairs, because it is very tiring, not to mention many chairs are damaged, scratched, I am afraid of scratching the audience's dresses. So I had to remove a lot of them, from 3,800 seats to only 1,796 seats, only taking the middle part and slightly diagonally so that the audience can easily see the stage, completely removing the seats on both sides of the wings and next to the umbrella pole. Honestly, with that many seats, selling tickets is already difficult, not like in the past. I even sewed a cover for the chair for more than 20 million VND, to make it look a bit nicer."

She also confided that if she were to sign a long-term contract, she would invest in a more complete Trong Dong stage, such as changing all the chairs to comfortable chairs of the right stage quality, building a system of iron frames to cover umbrellas firmly, not being blown away by wind or rain like now, investing in standard sound and lighting systems, instead of having to rent them every time she performs. She loves Trong Dong very much because it is a memory of her time and that of the Saigon audience, and currently it is still a valuable address for artistic activities. However, because the facilities are still so difficult, no one dares to perform, only Cat Phuong is bold enough to turn on the lights again. She hopes the city can preserve such valuable performance venues.
This program is not a comedy, but 4 completely new skits, each 30 - 40 minutes long, with proper content and messages. The famous artists invited such as Hoai Linh, Minh Nhi, Le Giang, Binh Tinh, Hua Minh Dat, Cam Ly, Luong Bich Huu, Mac Van Khoa, Vo Tan Phat, Bao Bao... helped the audience buy tickets quite quickly online. However, Cat Phuong still distributed flyers at many crowded places, she said she wanted to probe the audience's reaction when a comedy show was released, from which she would make decisions for future projects.
But Cat Phuong said she would do long plays, social opera, folk opera, or plays mixed with opera classes. Cat Phuong is originally from Sa Dec, so it is natural that she loves opera. Cat Phuong also acted in dramas at the 5B stage, making a strong impression with the role of the older sister in the play Endless Field , so she still dreams of such experiences. Cat Phuong confided: "No matter what kind of film I make, I am still a person of the stage, the blood of the stage still flows in me. I have no sponsor, I only invest within my own strength, but I try not to give up. The fate of the stage will probably last forever."
