Single Asian Female by Michelle Law, directed by Cassandra Tse, is being presented by Auckland Theatre Company. All about Pearl Wong, a first-generation Chinese immigrant, restaurateur and single mother, this funny, moving play is about
balancing family, business and karaoke. April 27-May15, ASB Waterfront Theatre.
I was a bookworm child, a voracious reader and very artsy. At school I was also academically bright, so was encouraged to study law alongside my theatre degree. The idea being that I'd have law to fall back on. I only did the first year of my law degree, as it felt like a lot of work to have something to fall back on. I'm lucky my parents have always been supportive and saw the theatre world as an acceptable pathway and my brother kindly became a lawyer instead.
