Biography:
"Ming Sir" Lau Sing-Ming is a respected veteran actor and a pioneer in Hong Kong dance. When he was just a youth, Lau received a scholarship to study ballet in France and work with some of the top dancers in the world. He went on to become the first Chinese dance choreographer in France and is a founding member of the Hong Kong Dance Federation. Lau was back in Hong Kong teaching dance when Tsui Hark approached him to take on the part of the narrator/documenter in The Butterfly Murders (1979). Lau has since gone on to appear in several more Tsui Hark productions, most memorably as the freaky, soul-sucking, transgender Tree Demon in A Chinese Ghost Story (1987) and A Chinese Ghost Story 3 (1991). He also turned up in A Chinese Ghost Story 2 (1990), playing Joey Wong's father this time, and in Swordsman (1990) as Ngok, the duplicitous headmaster of the Wah Mountain School. Lau was also in the Hui Brothers comedy Front Page (1990) and had Norika Fujiwara on his arm in his role as a crime boss in China Strike Force (2000). Lau has appeared regularly in TV serials and films over the years and continues to be an active member and supporter of the local Hong Kong arts community. He received the Hong Kong Dance Award in 2002 for his lifelong dedication and contributions to the art of dance. (Yinique 2005)
