Design for Living is a comedy play written by British playwright in 1932. This play is translated into Chinese - 華麗上班族之生活與生存, and directed by Hong Kong writer/producer, Edward Lam, and will premiere in Beijing this December.
I really wish that I get to see this play because Sylvia Chang and Joseph Cheng are the main characters. Both Sylvia and Joe are from Taiwan. Sylvia is so talented. She started off as an actress at a young age, and later wrote and directed her own films in Hong Kong and Taiwan. She was also in an full Asian American cast comedy film couple years ago - American Fusion. She was also one of the receipients of Best Actress of the Golden Horse Award in Taiwan.
I recently watched many Taiwanese soap operas, and Joe is one of my favorite actors because he is good looking (hehe), funny, and he is also growing to be a more mature actor.
It would be great to watch this production that is a collaboration of talents from Hong Kong and Taiwan in mainland China. Don't miss out if you get the chance!
