Huayi - Chinese Festival of Arts 2010 华艺节
Man and Woman, War and Peace
男人与女人之战争与和平 by Edward Lam Dance Theatre 非常林奕华

It is war between the sexes and the weapons seem to be razor-sharp wit, brute machismo and lethal beauty. But, wait, the men are turning into boys and the women are turning into men!

Who really are the “men” and “women” in this battle? Who will succumb first to love? And who will be the most brutal to achieve victory at all costs?

In Man and Woman, War and Peace, the practice of love becomes a complex battlefield in which a multitude of conventionally male, typically female and androgynous characters, played by six actors and six actresses, in two competing TV shows about relationships, show you how they recruit an army for their cause and fight to win…

Featuring Taiwanese idol Ariel Lin, multi-faceted Taiwanese actor David Wang (also in Lam’s previous productions, What is Man? and Design for Living), and renowned Hong Kong music producer and Cantopop star Denise Ho among its young cast and crew, Man and Woman, War and Peace is acclaimed Hong Kong director Edward Lam’s latest theatre production – a fast-paced, sharply witty urban play about the perennial love/hate relationship between the sexes, but minus the clichés, and with a twist.



But I got to prepare for exams! ):
