Matthew Cheng’s celebrated masterpiece
An encounter that begins with a "quick peek"
 
 
Stay-at-home husband Chan Chi Yung and housewife Wang Xia meet at a chance encounter outside a kindergarten. Every day they enjoy casual chats, and a faintly discernible yet ambiguous relationship develops. The world of married couples does not always feature high drama. Snippets of daily life that appear normal and cordial may harbour heinous undercurrents. Will a sparrow that accidentally falls on the ground stay entrapped in its relationship? Or would it embark on an escapade?
 
Ambiguous premiered in 2021 to tremendous acclaim, garnering Best Play at the 30th Hong Kong Drama Awards and winning for Cheng Best Playwright at the 2023 Shanghai One Drama Awards. With the launch of “HKRep on Screen” last year, Ambiguous was among the selected productions shown in cinemas not only in Hong Kong but also in Beijing, Guilin and Shenzhen, winning much praise. Delighted at our audience’s enthusiasm, we present this re-run to satisfy theatre fans’ expectations.
 
 
“A meticulous script, a meticulous director with meticulous actors… emotions run deep but are contained; although restrained, tiny clues are left along the way. Feelings and intentions are finely etched in performance.”
– Leung Tze, IATC (HK)
