One bed and three different stories provide the background for Artocrite Theater’s “Bad Time Stories”. Stubbornness makes people lost and obsessed, leading them into despair. An unintentionally pregnant woman enters the operation room to seek a way out of her predicament. She bumps into another pregnant lady, who is waiting for the arrival of her new baby. A wife believes that being patient with her husband can sustain their love. The husband, however, only becomes worse. He hits her, and the wife keeps getting hurt every night. In the same place, a man suffers from depression; he wishes to liberate his mind, but he is troubled by the unpleasant incidents of his past. He does not know what is being trapped – his body or his soul.

Night is a beginning but also an end. In this performance, four talented performers of different backgrounds make use of drama, puppetry, masks and movement and use them to travel along the rift of consciousness – from dream to reality and chaos to tranquility.

Inspired by William Shakespeare’s “The Tragedy of Julius Caesar”, the adaptation “Caesar” was created by Hong Kong Drama Awards best director nominee Sin Chun-tung and directed by Hong Kong Theatre Libre best director nominee Octavian Chan. Sin will also perform with Ben So.

Caesar, who stands at the summit of power, ignores the fortune teller’s warning and is assassinated by the opposition coalition headed by Brutus. After the demise of Caesar, Brutus realises that the so-called “justice” fails to defeat human nature.
