This April, Centre 42 warmly welcomes another batch of students from the NUS Theatre Studies programme to undertake a Vault Residency. They will be presenting PE*IS, a performance-response to theatre doyen Kuo Pao Kun's Descendants of the Eunuch Admiral. First presented in 1995, and restaged several times since, Descendants is one of Kuo's most beloved and well-known plays. It cleverly uses the story of Admiral Zheng He, the legendary Chinese eunuch, to draw parallels to the modern Singaporean condition and the 'cultural orphan' phenomenon.
