Story of Renaissance Chinese Opera Society:
The Renaissance Chinese Opera Society was founded in New York City in 1984 by Feng Shi Jea.  It is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. It is one of the few Chinese opera performing organizations in the United States having professionally-trained artists who not only perform their roles but also serve in training new talents.  But since these capable artists are unable to earn a living in Chinese opera in this country, they are forced into moonlighting in various occupations to take out what is often a bare existence, and to these artists the Renaissance Chinese Opera Society means returning to their primary interest and vocation after working in odd jobs they find to subsist.  
 In the past 30 years, the Renaissance Chinese Opera Society has performed over 350 different places across North America.  It has recently relocated to South Jersey with the mission to preserve and promote precious Chinese opera heritage, and to introduce it to the multinational cultural mosaic of American life.  It provides Chinese opera lovers a place where they can enjoy, learn and share the precious Chinese heritage arts among others. After Mr. Jea retired in 2017, Ms. Yong-Hong Jia serves as the president of the Renaissance Chinese Opera Society and continues her deceased husband Shu (Eric) Ho’s dream of promoting the arts of Chinese opera in the United States.
