About Sea (1997)

Haresh Sharma’s Sea was first staged in 1997 as part of a double-bill entitled Moving Home Stories. Following on from Land (also written by Sharma), Sea depicted the whimsical conversation between two sisters, the elder Fong Su Fen and her younger sibling, Fong Su Fang, also called Tarcy. Fen and Tarcy were first played by Serene Chen and Zelda Tatiana Ng respectively, to much critical acclaim. The pair were directed by Kok Heng Leun.
