Renowned Hong Kong playwright and actress Wong Wing Sze is best known for her solo performance My Grandmother’s Funeral. Born into a Taoist family specializing in funeral rites but raised with a Catholic education, she was deeply moved by her grandmother’s elaborate Taoist funeral in 2006. This experience inspired a year of research and a collaboration with esteemed director Lee Chun Chow, resulting in a landmark one-woman show that won her the Hong Kong Drama Award for Best Actress (Comedy/Farce).

Premiering in 2008, My Grandmother’s Funeral blends dark humor with deep emotion. Performed ten times over 17 years to sold-out audiences, it remains a beloved and enduring work in Hong Kong theatre.
