The Coffin is Too Big for the Hole



23 - 24 Feb 2010

Esplanade Theatre Studio

As part of Huayi 2010 Festival commission: SCENES

Beyond life and death, the most absurd funeral feud between the powerful and the powerless begins.

A person dies; a funeral ensues; kinfolk amass
A coffin for the dead; a hole for the coffin; a set of rules for the living
What happens when the coffin is too big for the hole?

Who will budge in thie tug-of-war between compassion and the system?

Based on the original play written in 1985 by Singapore Cultural Medallion winner, Kuo Pao Kun.
