Oriental Chinese Magic: Introducing Bian Lian with Lion & Dragon Dance in Singapore
A one-of-a-kind cultural performance that blends tradition, theatrics, and magic.
You’ve probably seen it at Haidilao hot pot — the fast-paced, mesmerizing performance where a performer changes face masks in a blink of an eye.
That ancient art is called Bian Lian (变脸) — and now, it’s making a grand entrance into Singapore’s premium event scene… with a twist.
At MagicATOM, we’re proud to be the first in Singapore to fuse Bian Lian with traditional Lion Dance and Dragon Dance performances — creating a visually stunning, high-energy, culturally immersive experience.
What is Bian Lian?
Bian Lian, or “face-changing,” is a secretive art from Sichuan opera, where performers rapidly switch between vividly colored masks using swift, hidden movements. It’s mysterious, magical, and deeply rooted in Chinese heritage.
Most people experience Bian Lian in passing — perhaps at a restaurant like Haidilao — but we take it several steps further.
What Makes Our Bian Lian Unique?
Unlike the static, quick pop-in performances you might see during dinner, our Bian Lian magician brings martial arts finesse, stage magic, and audience interaction into the mix — making it perfect for:
- Small gatherings
- Large-scale festivals and corporate events
Performed by a Trained Magician
Our Bian Lian artist is also a professional magician with a background in martial arts, delivering fluid movement, charisma, and showmanship — not just mask switching.
Bian Lian Meets the Lions and Dragons
In our signature fusion act, the Bian Lian character interacts with lion and dragon dancers — forming friendships, teasing them playfully, and ultimately joining them in a grand finale. The result? A seamless, culturally rich performance that brings HUAT energy to any space.
