Must I Cry

'At that time, I told myself not to cry, and so I didn't.' Inspired by the writings of renowned Hong Kong author Xi Xi, whose whimsical tales became a defining portrait of a city transitioning away from British rule; and the story of the last male northern white rhinoceros, Sudan, whose death marked the end of a species on the brink of extinction. Through the interweaving of texts and narratives presented in a poetic form, accompanied by live music and projections, this performance aims to explore the themes of memory and disappearance in an ever-changing urban city.
