SYNOPSIS

Synopsis

This play revolves around Kah Wei, a 15-year old girld, who will be sitting for her GCE 'O' Level examinations next year. The play starts with Chinese New Year where Kah Wei's relatives' constant nagging and unwanted advise force her to seek refuge in he room. The scenes that follow reveal the different aspects of Kah Wei's character--her relationships, her childhood, her coming to grips with the roles she must play and the various expectations she faces.

As the play progresss, we may find ourselves as Kah Wei does, questioning the dos and don'ts, the whys and hows, of life. Or, we may find ourselves questioning Kah Wei.

The Lanterns Project is a 1-month programme in March and is part of the 1994 Young People's Theatre.
