“Speaking in Tongues” Performance cum Post-performance Discussion

2019/20 Arts Experience Scheme for Senior Secondary Students

Description

Description

The play starts off with two couples embroiled in extra-marital affairs. A high-heeled shoe in the bushes, a therapy session, a few phone messages and numerous love letters trace the overlapping relationships and conflicting emotional associations entangling nine characters. Loneliness and marital bonds are overwhelmed by the thrill to connect intimately with a stranger. Why are we so ill-equipped to speak of love? Despite our best efforts in expressing our emotions, words often fail to communicate what is lodged deep in our hearts.

Post-performance Discussion
Led by main creative artists, the post-performance discussion focuses on students’ immediate experience of appreciation, aimed to inspire autonomous thinking and interactive discussion among students.
