香港大學圖書館城西書話之十月十三日聚話 (In English)

2005年09月30日

 

You are cordially invited to attend a book talk on "City Stage: Hong Kong Playwriting in English", organised by the University of Hong Kong Libraries Reading Club on 13 October 2005 (Thursday) 7:15pm. The speakers are Dr Mike Ingham and Ms Xu Xi. The moderator is Professor Leung Ping-kwan (Ye Si).

"City Stage" is an anthology of recent Hong Kong English-language drama written for Hong Kong performers and audiences. All the plays were written in the last ten years and so capture and reflect the fast-developing multiculturalism of the Hong Kong scene -- a somewhat paradoxical phenomenon in view of the 1997 return to China Mainland sovereignty. The book is edited by Mike Ingham and Xu Xi.

There will be Q&A section after their speeches.
