Overview

The second in a series of theatre experiences adapted from Hong Kong author Westwingmoon's online novel Hell Post Office

Post Office in Hell – The Origin is a new collaboration between novelist Westwingmoon and playwright-director Yan Pat-to, that revisits the story that opened with Post Office in Hell ( Part 1 ) in March this year.

The new, stand-alone theatre production tells the story of postman Nam Mun-leung – an individual gifted with the ability to travel between worlds and deliver letters to loved ones in the afterlife. As he journeys back and forth between the living and the dead, Nam witnesses the remorse of his clients. Forced to confront his own personal issues, he navigates how to save himself, his family and his significant other.

Post Office in Hell – The Origin combines Westwingmoon's insight into the funeral industry with Yan Pat-to's creative experience of theatre in Hong Kong and Germany, exploring an innovative approach to storytelling that walks the audience on a path through life and death.
