Fung Shui by Lillian Too. Arts Centre Shouson Theatre, September 21 Iam not the only person to have shifted my computer terminal to an awkward angle after Lillian Too's talk last week. I know of at least one person who is now sleeping on the floor, and another who has her bed at a diagonal, and keeps waking up with no pillows.
After all, if you realise you are facing your total loss direction at work, or have a toilet in your romance corner at home, you can't just leave it blithely at that.
You have to give yourself a fighting chance of success.
Lillian Too is former chief executive officer of Dao Heng Bank in Hong Kong, she also turned department store Dragon Seed around, using fung shui as well as what sounds like a great deal of common sense. And she is now best-selling author of dozens of books which present geomancy in fun, practical ways.
On stage she was a natural. She had us laughing, manically calculating (to find our good and bad corners) but above all learning the basics of what is often a very arcane science in an entirely entertaining way.
'I joke, joke, joke, but I am very serious,' she said several times.
