It's September 2014, Felix is travelling to the Philippines to visit his mother but ends up stranded in Hong Kong for one weekend. Felix meets Bunny and through a haze of sight-seeing, wild nights and the pulsing undercurrent of political change, these two philosophize on chance encounters with a stranger on the other side of the world. If the Lights Are Too Bright is Canadian-born, Alex Rand's first full length play. Set against the backdrop of the recent Hong Kong protests, it explores questions about citizenship, where your true "home" is, and how a little document such a passport can hold so much power in deciding your fate and who has the control?
