20 March 2013, Phoenix Theatre, London Quietly beautiful. Subtly moving. Once won 8 Tony’s last year. It’s a bit of a mystery how it’s not selling very well in London at the moment. I think partly it’s to do with its unfortunate clash with the opening of The Book of Mormon which has gotten the … More Once
2 April 2013, London Palladium Makes you really appreciate and respect the hard life of artists. Auditioning relentlessly, putting themselves on the line… It was a fun show. One and I Hope I Get It were two of the songs I first learnt full dances to, so when they performed these two songs, I sat there … More A Chorus Line
21 March 2013, Donmar Warehouse, London Great play on at the Donmar. Can always count on Donmar to deliver quality shows at low prices in an intimate setting. Ha I sound like I work for them. Perhaps it’s because I’ve kind of been on a theatre drought… this show, although far from my usual taste … More Trelawny of the Wells
3 March 2013, Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts Comedy is usually not my preferred theatre genre (primarily because I don’t like slapstick humour which then crosses off a lot of comedy for me) but… Chinglish… wow it was so good! And I was so pleased it was good, though I wish we got to … More Chinglish
2 March 2013, No. 12 Cattle Depot, Hong Kong Saw a site specific dance piece last night at the Cattle Depot Artist Village. It’s the only existing pre-war animal quarantine / slaughterhouse in HK, which was transformed into an artist village in 2001. Cool site, but, um, I’m not gonna comment on the show we … More Kidult Ophelia
28 January 2013, Hong Kong Cultural Centre Went to see the Chicago Symphony Orchestra tonight. Sometimes I wish I could turn off work mode. Anyway, I hope this doesn’t sound like I didn’t enjoy the concert, because I actually did, I really enjoyed it. So it was an interesting night for a various reasons… – … More Chicago Symphony Orchestra
24 October 2012, Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts, Hong Kong Probably the highest energy show I have ever seen. Absolutely incredible how they managed to sustain their energy levels for more than two hours of intense non-stop ballroom dancing. This show had an interesting vibe and flavour. It started off with 90s rock n’ … More Burn the Floor – the Ultimate Ballroom Sensation
20 May 2012, Young Vic Theatre, London Growing up, we always studied Chinese History at school. But somehow, nothing would ever stick. There would be the old Emperor here or the deathly battle there… but those characters and stories were too removed from our daily lives. And interestingly, we were never taught contemporary history. When … More Wild Swans
