The Hong Kong Heritage Museum is reviving its tribute to late singer-actor Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing three years after its first iteration, marking what would have been the Cantopop icon’s 70th birthday with rare items from private collections, stage costumes and other exhibits.The “Miss You Much. Leslie 70th Birthday. Exhibition” runs from September 9 this year to May 10, 2027, at the museum in Sha Tin. Admission is free for the event, which is being presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department.Cheung, affectionately known to fans as “Gor Gor” – Cantonese for “big brother” – rose to stardom during Cantopop’s golden era in the 1980s and 1990s.Returning on a “much grander scale” than the 2023 showcase, the exhibition features more than 300 items, including vinyl records, film posters and other pop-culture memorabilia.In addition to the museum’s own collection, the exhibition includes items loaned by Cheung’s long-time partner, Daffy Tong Hok-tak, and former manager Florence Chan Sock-fun, among other loved ones, fan group Les FANmily and independent artists. The exhibition marks the first time many of these objects will be displayed publicly.Highlights include 11 costumes worn during Cheung’s live acts, notably the cloak he wore for his performance of “For Your Heart Only” at his Final Encounter of the Legend show in 1989, as well as his gold jacket, sequinned top and purple-striped trousers from Live in Concert 97.For the first time, the museum has recreated the interior of Cheung’s former residence in collaboration with his original interior designer. The display includes a photograph of his friends gathering at his house after his death.
