After an absence of more than 25 years, Connie Chan emerged from retirement in 1999 to star in a stage production based on the life of her Master, Yam Kim-fai. "Sentimental Journey" won great acclaim and broke records with its 100-performance run; it was brought back for a six-week revival in 2005. After "Sentimental Journey", Connie starred alongside Tony Leung Ka-Fai and Carina Lau in the stage play "Red Boat", which ran for 64 performances. The play is an homage to the Cantonese Opera troupes that traditionally travelled by boat through the Pearl River delta region of China. In 2003 she staged a series of spectacular concerts, delighting fans with her cherished film songs and some Cantonese opera classics; her guest stars included Fung Bo-bo, Nancy Sit Ka-yin, and Maggie Cheung Ho-yee (who played the character based on Connie in the TVB television series "Old Time Buddy" and the film "Those Were the Days").
