10位玉佛寺僧人成为上海戏剧学院全日制学生 - 2014年10月10日

MONKS from the Jade Buddha Temple yesterday enrolled at the Shanghai Theater Academy, in order to improve the quality of their musical performances for visitors.

Ten monks signed up as full-time students to study music and performance — the first monks from the Anyuan Road temple to study full time.

The 10, who are members of the temple’s Buddhist orchestra, started the first semester with classes on singing, reciting lines, performing and building up their physiques.
