"if God for an instance would forget that we are cloth marionettes and would give us a piece of life, possibly we would not say all that we think, we would definitely think all that we say. We would give value to all things, and not for what they are worth, but for what they mean.

Is the first "live" talk show to be presented in Singapore. Hosted by acclaimed playwright, Haresh Sharma, each of the instalment of the talk show will address issues which are pertinent to family life today. 

In Late Nights, we witness how a family undergoes a predicament of bringing up an adolescent daughter. What are the channels of communication available and how does a typical Singaporean family manage tensions and conflicts?

As we watch this family handle this situation, many possibilities may appear in our imagination. Art often reflects life and this situation is something some families undergo. Sometimes living together for a long time makes it more difficult to communicate and we often opt to sweep things under the carpet than address them.

This short work does not make any strong recommendations as to how such a situation should be handled. This is to avoid a general prescription as each case would have to be handled in a unique way as life is not so black and white.
