Novelist clashes with character he created in surreal theatre show 'Stereo Genmai’


Much of the atmosphere in Stereo Genmai is created to be dream-like, says writer/director Ridhwan Saidi. The play revolves around novelists, and the (stage) set plays with the 'texture and quality of paper'. Photo: Stereo Genmai

Writer’s block is an awful thing. It’s no fun to run out of inspiration, or to be stuck in a creative rut, unsure of where to take a particular story.

While a writer suffering from this may have an awful time, imagine how his characters would feel, unable to move on because of the block. Frozen in time, trapped in a story that refuses to move forward – what an existential nightmare!
