Hong Kong Arts Festival: The Unexpected Man

I saw the drama at HKAPA.







The story is about two strangers, a man and a woman, sit opposite one another on a train from Paris to Frankfurt. He, an embittered novelist, she, a life-long fan with his recent book in her bag.

They do not speak to each other, but their thoughts pour out in dazzling monologues about their loves and lives, art and fiction.

It was played by Chung King-fai and Sheren Tang. The story is quite simple. Two characters only have a few dialogues but mainly pieces of monologues.
