"A Little Culture, Anyone?" 


(Brian and Cindy are talking on the bus)


 


Cindy:  Any thing going on this weekend?


Brian:   Uh? I'm suppose to go and see a play.


Cindy:  A play? Like Shakespeare or something?


Brian:   I'm not sure. My friend has a role in the play so I'm going to support him.


Cindy:  Is it in English or Chinese?


Brian:   It had better be in English cause he doesn't speak a word of Chinese.


        


Brian:   It's a small production in a coffee shop.


Cindy:  I'd like to swing by.


Brian:   They are an amateur theater group and they occasionally perform a play to raise money for a charitable cause. I think the proceeds of this one go to the Tzu Chi Relief Centre in Tansui.


        


Cindy:  I love theater. Especially in Taiwan. I really like Cloud Gate.


Peter:  Aren't they a dance troupe?


Cindy:  I don't know. I'm no authority on the subject.
