One Year Back Home
One Year Back Home was written in 1977 and first staged by the Experimental Theatre Club in 1980.
Hua, her brother Chye and friend Reginald, try to find their equilibrium when they return to Singapore after their studies abroad. Friendship and values, conscience and duty no longer balance in the scales back home.
Robert Yeo is a lecturer at the Institute of Education. He teaches English and has written poems, plays and novels. He has also edited numerous books and short stories. One Year Back Home was written as a sequel to Are You There Singapore! which was first performed in 1974.
