The Luck Ngai Musical Society (also known as Luck Ngi Musical Club, Luck Ngai Operatic Society and other variations) is a local amateur Cantonese opera group established in Seattle in 1935 to promote Chinese opera, support the local Chinese School, and raise funds for community causes. In November 1984, the group performed the traditional opera "Wang Siu Gun," about a Cantonese king forced to send his concubine to a barbarian to prevent a war. The benefit production was held for senior citizens at the Chong Wa Benevolent Society Hall.

Here, Lucy Lee prepares for her role as the king's concubine in the Luck Ngia Operatic Society production of "Wang Siu Gun," while her daughter Sara looks on.

The clubhouse of the Luck Ngi Musical Club still operates at 512 7th Ave. S. in Seattle's Chinatown International District as of 2021.
