Most of us have dreams that we hope to pursue, but it can be hard to balance what we want with the reality of making a living.

Local novelist Dung Kai-cheung explores the struggle between dreams and reality in his debut play, Living to Dream of Life.

Theatre group Actors Family will stage the drama this weekend.

Dung based the main character on himself.

In the play, the 30-something teaches writing skills at a secondary school.

There he encounters two contrasting characters who make him reflect on life. The first character is a schoolgirl who is confident that she will become a writer.
