Mask-Changing

I first heard of the Chinese art of mask changing from the movie King of Masks. It seems impossible how anyone can remove a mask that fast. Recently I went to a Chinese New Year performance hosted at the Central Library of the Brooklyn Public Library. One of the performer, a Mr. Wang something, was a mask changer. It was amazing! He may have black strings hidden on his cape's shoulder, but whatever the trick, it was great to witness. Enjoy!
