This event has ended
A Tony Award and Drama Critics' Circle Award-winning play returns to the stage.
A smash hit in 2014 with ten sold-out performances.
Who says an affair is only about secrecy and not about love? A married man and a married woman meet once a year for a secret rendezvous at the Prosperity Hotel on Rua da Felicidade. From their first passionate encounter, they promise to meet at the same time and place every year, a commitment that astonishingly lasts for twenty-five years! From their prime to old age, they faithfully keep their annual appointment. These nights are not just about physical intimacy but also provide profound emotional solace. They share everything, support each other through life's storms, and witness the changing times together, yet their total time together amounts to less than a month. This enduring love story spans from 1974 to 1999, on the eve of the handover, as the outdated hotel faces closure. Will their love finally find its rightful place?
Suitable for ages 13 and above.
Critic Li Yee: "A rare and thoroughly enjoyable theatrical experience in recent years. Not a single dull moment in two hours. Although adapted from an American play, it shows no trace of forced adaptation, making it a rare and successful case of 'localization.'"
Playwright Lee U Leong: "A fairy tale for adults, rich in entertainment value. Excellent in script, direction, performance, and technical design. Well worth staging again."
