As is theatre, such is life.
I just saw 'Farewell my Concubine'. Wow. Just... wow. Sexually charged, visually breathtaking, tragic both in concept and its historical backdrop and influences and just an overall feast for all the senses. Everyone, EVERYONE who hasn't seen this absolutely must. I'm still processing it, but wow, what an experience. Deserving of every single accolade and then some.
