About

Award-winning playwright Wichaya Artamat, a trailblazer in contemporary Thai theatre, presents his celebrated work, This Song Father Used to Sing (Three Days in May), for the first time on mainland China’s stage. This Song Father Used to Sing (Three Days in May) is not only a poignant exploration of familial bonds and cultural rituals but also a celebration of the intersection between Thai and Chinese traditions. With its recent acclaim at major international festivals, this performance promises to be a memorable experience for all audiences.

Synopsis

A small kitchen space in Bangkok. A brother and sister live through three days there in May, each time in a different calendar year, to commemorate their deceased father in a traditional Chinese ceremony. They cook, eat, chat and joke about nothing in particular. Their retiring nature contrasts with the captivating and often absurd conversations they engage in. Past, present and future blend subtly and are connected to the political context of the Thai metropolis.
