Cetecea
“‘Cetecea’ was conceived when I saw a photograph of a school of whales beached on a shore. I knew I had a story there because the imagery was so powerful. The play was completed while I was in the States on an engineering assignment for my company and I faxed it to Theatre Works…. But really, the play is a personal statement about coming to terms with someone close to you, and yet seems to live worlds apart from yourself. ‘Cetecea’ is not an environmental play, but if it could earn a little more respect for whales from a few more people, then it has served its purpose – in more ways than one.”
– Otto Fong, June 1993
Breaking Through
“Parents usually have a lot to say when their children are getting married; they seem to have a secret recipe to a happy marriage. What makes people marry each other in the first place, I wonder? There will come a time when two people find it meaningless to stay under different roofs and decide that they want to move under the same roof, someone shared his thoughts. But what happens after that? Do they really share everything? There are so many ‘What ifs’ after two people make that decision.”
– Lee Chee Keng, June 1993
