SSOP Theatre Presents 上車耆談 DREAM HOUSE
Earn A House, Lose A Home
How far would you be willing to go to buy your first home? What would you actually need to sacrifice? Having toiled for so long, was it all for a building or a place to call home? When you look back after the mortgage is finally paid off and the prime of your life is past, would you discover that the things you neglected and lost were far more important than a house…? Sacrificium Society of Production annual original play “Dream Home” will explore the struggles and true cost of modern homeownership through six short stories, all related to one strange death. Are we all striving for a beautiful house or just a warm home?
賺到一間屋，輸了一頭家。 為了「上車」你可以去到有幾盡？能夠犧牲的又有幾多？勞碌半生，所為的是一幢房子、還是一個安樂窩？好不容易才供滿了房子，當韶華已逝，驀然回首，竟發現自己疏忽了的、失去了的，遠比一幢房子重要… 祭作舍一年一度原創話劇《上車耆談》透過劇中一宗離奇命案的發生，帶出六段短篇奇情故事，反映現代人為要置業所面臨的困境，從而反問「上車」何價。究竟我們當下竭力追求的是一幢漂亮房子、還是一個溫暖的家？
