The lights are on.

"Lighting Up" opens with a story set in 1994, a time when traditional Vietnamese opera troupes were warmly welcomed by audiences. Thanh, then a 10-year-old boy working as a fisherman on the river, braved danger to protect the ancestral altar and was later adopted by the troupe's manager. Kieu Truc Linh, a pretty 9-year-old girl, is the daughter of the famous opera singer Kieu Truc Le. But to save her daughter, Truc Le sacrificed herself…

Ten years later, the lack of audience persisted despite the troupe's owner's best efforts to transform it from a traditional cải lương (Vietnamese opera) troupe into a variety show featuring circus acts, lottery games, and musical performances, with only excerpts and modern-traditional fusion opera remaining. Although everyone worked together, the situation didn't improve much. Despite struggling with difficult circumstances, the love for their profession and their romantic relationships remained strong in each individual.

The story of the theater troupe continues with unexpected situations, yet in the end, they still continue together on the artistic path they have chosen, and the core values ​​of the stage remain forever in the hearts of those who make a living from it.
