had caught a play over weekend..despite its rather funny tittle..it's not entirely a very funny show. its more of a dark comedy. and my friend compared it to watching a lars von trier movie.



one of the things i like about the show is the name of the place it was supposed to be set in. saitang. my friend told me it means SHITHOLE in one dialect. and the people who live there are known as saitangers..which make them SHITHOLERS.

this play was about exploring the dark side of human nature..and my take on it, i see a part of it being about people desperate enough they will do anything (especially when it comes to monetary gains). yet at the same time trying to justify their actions with skewed sense of moral superiority.

so i thought it was really apt to have it set in SHITHOLE of a place inhabited by SHITHOLERS.

*anyway its run is over. the acting was quite alright, the best of coz was from the lead actor(ess)
