King tells the story of Geok Yen, a public relations executive who seemingly has it all – a stable job and a boyfriend who is about to propose. This safe stable life gets upturned when on impulse, she attends the party in the guise of a man, Stirling da Silva. Emboldened by the alter ego, Yen discovers a newfound confidence to speak her truth and be whatever she could be without self-judgement. In this two-hander, Jo Tan delivers a tour de force performance playing multiple characters, navigating expertly through a host of social stereotypes.
