A collaboration between The Finger Players and Theatre Practice
《大猪民》Citizen Pig
Property, power, and the price of survival in Singapore
Synopsis
Backstabbing, under the table dealings and double-crossing – it’s just another day in the world of real estate.
Housing agents, new and old immigrants are fighting for properties in land scarce Singapore. Someone has to give in, somehow. Who bends the rules and breaks the law?
Two tenants share their rental woes, shedding light on unscrupulous house owners and realtors.
It’s one thing to survive, and another to live.
This tongue-in-cheek production about lies and deception in a dog eat dog world will be reenacted by award-winning directors/playwrights/actors Oliver Chong (Resident Director of The Finger Players) and Liu Xiaoyi (Resident Director of The Theatre Practice) in a duologue that will shock and tickle you with its no-holds-barred portrayal of surviving Singapore.

不择手段,暗箱操作,尔虞我诈——这些不过都是房产界的家常便饭。
在地小人多的新加坡,为了有个立足之地,新旧移民与房屋经纪你争我夺。争夺中,有人屈服让步,有人得寸进尺。是谁扭曲了规矩?是谁破坏了法律?
两位租客,通过分享租赁房产的惨痛经验,揭发无良业主与房屋经纪的卑劣手段。
生存与生活,从来都是两码事。
本剧由两位得奖剧场工作者,钟达成(十指帮驻团导演)与刘晓义(实践剧场驻团导演)携手,肆无忌惮地嘲讽在社会中的弱肉强食,入木三分地刻画在新加坡的挣扎求存,必定让您在笑声中感受震撼!
