If you have ever thought about working in theatre or just dreamed of being part of a big-stage performance, take a look at the message below from our Friends at Shax Theatre Group, HKU.
Dear Students,
We Want You!
We are a HKU-based theatre group called Hong Kong Shax Theatre Group and we are on the hunt again for our annual productions in the second semester! Following the success of our bilingual project earlier this year, we are once again staging two very different plays –1) The Taming of the Shrew (Shakespearean English) and The Merchant of Venice (Cantonese). We are on the look-out for students interested in drama in any form: as an actor/ stage crew/ props & sets team member/ costume & design artist/ make-up artist/ production manager/ stage manager/ graphics designer/ social media manager/ photo/videographer.

About/Contact Us
Founded in 2010, we are an established group of Shakespearean addicts based in the University of Hong Kong. With a mission to promote theatre culture to local youngsters by providing them with an out-of-the-classroom educational experience, a chance to hone literary and language proficiency, and participate in social inclusion, we bedazzle with an array of acting, dancing, singing, composition and live band play, alongside adaption to the modern 20th century. Our 2016 comedy The Two Gentlemen of Verona won Best Ensemble and Best Director at the Hecklers (hosted by HKELD). Our 2017 production Love’s Labour’s Lost won in the following categories: Best Show (Non-Musical), Best Ensemble, Best Director and Best Supporting Actor.
