This event has been completed.

In February 2008, the British Council will support the engagement of the National Theatre of Great Britain with the Hong Kong Arts Festival, and bring the Asian premiere of Chatroom + Citizenship.

Accolades rain down on this superb double-bill of new works from the UK's multi award-winning National Theatre of Great Britain. Short, sharp and provocative, the plays address the compelling and often confused world of teenagers on the verge of adulthood. Written by two of Britain's most exciting and celebrated playwrights, Enda Walsh and Mark Ravenhill, the plays feature sharply drawn characters, superb dialogue and a penetrating wit. Performed by an outstanding young cast and directed by award-winning Anna Mackmin, Chatroom and Citizenship have an energy and edge that revitalise the stage.
