I'm thinking of going to a play reading in Soho Friday 11th June (tomorrow night). Anyone interested in coming along to see some East Asian theatre in the making?

CHINESE PARTY by Andy Cheung, directed by John McGrath (Contact Theatre, Manchester) Calvin organises a Chinese party in a prestigious West End club. This is a make or break situation especially since the press is reviewing the event. So what is to be done with Tiny, a close friend with a history of violence? An energetic and poignant look at British Chinese youth culture.

YELLOW MEN by Benjamin Yeoh, directed by Ben Payne (Birmingham Rep)
What would you say, if you could speak to your childhood self? The night old Tommy Lee is dying, he gets a chance to speak to his younger self, but can he change the 20 year old Tommy Lee and alter his destiny?
