The Bucket

  • Tuen Mun Town Hall Cultural Activities Hall
  • 14.11.2025 - 23.11.2025
Can a smattering of art vanquish fate hung by a thread?
 
During a “fake” renaissance era, four relatively accomplished “Westerners” become comrades. Though lost in their ways, they drift through life with a smattering of art. They then decide to emulate the ancients in swearing a blood oath: “We ask not the same year, month and day of birth; but wish to die on the same year, month and day.” When one of them dies on the spot, their oath becomes a curse…
 
The Bucket transfers from our Black Box to the Main Stage this year, continuing the collaboration between playwright Hui Jim and up-and-coming director Kingston Lo. Together they incite laughter and tears with their absurdist humour. This play was nominated for five awards at the 15th Hong Kong Theatre Libre, winning Outstanding Performance, Outstanding Playwright and Outstanding Director. This production has also received six nominations in the recently announced IATC(HK) Critics Awards 2024, including Performance of the Year, Script/Playwright of the Year, Director of the Year, Performer of the Year, and Scenography of the Year. Additionally, it has earned three nominations at the 33rd Hong Kong Drama Awards, for Best Original Script, Best Director (Comedy/Farce) and Best Leading Actor (Comedy/Farce). 
 
The astute dialogue is prescient, and the play ridicules life. In laughter, we question what it means to dream.
