It is no Secret – KE Chinese Drama makes its debut in Shanghai Theatre
A memorable night for 国大 King Edward VII Hall 中文戏剧 Chinese Drama CCA as they performed before a 600-strong Shanghai audience in Theatre Above! Under the direction of the playwright-director Stan Lai himself, the group's "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land" had the audience enthralled. In attendance, amongst others, were the performers' families, KEVII Hall Master A/P Lee and Residential Life staff Kellie. It is an accomplishment by our KEVIIANs to explore their passion in theatre abroad. We look forward to the next Chinese Drama production in 2020!

Such unique viewpoints were invaluable to me as it was shaped by individuals who came…
