Widely acknowledged as the most significant work of the late Singaporean playwright Kuo Pao Kun, The Coffin Is Too Big For The Hole - about a man's effort to bury his grandfather's oversized coffin in a small plot - is a powerful lament on the helplessness of a citizen living in a rigid country. The monologue was performed by the brilliant Lee Chun-chow, who also played the grandson when the play made its debut in Hong Kong in 1987 (pictured). Profits go to Practice Performing Arts School, the progressive but cash-strapped Singaporean institution set up by Kuo in 1965. Tue-Thu, 8pm. $120 ($50) HK Ticketing. Shouson Theatre, Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2 Harbour Rd, Wan Chai. Inquiries: 2582 0203
